The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be observed way back into distant history, in truth as far as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these early recipes were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to experts in ancient history is a collection of stone tablets in the Sumerian language which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel wonderful and blissful. Much later, in Roman times a roman called Apicius assembled a few documents which described recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and dessert, something we still use today. Aspicius also describes how the Roman cooks made use of many aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as bay, mint and parsley. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the upper-class families of Wesstern Europe tried to lay on the most extravagent banquests, and consequentially chefs and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s that fine cookery and recipe books really came of age. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, trying out, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. When we get to the twentieth century, cookery publications were increasing in popularity as a result of better eduction, increased leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
