The History of Recipes
Food historians have proved the existance of recipes way back into distant history, in truth as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, generally, these early records were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history is a series of stone tablets in the Sumerian language which show the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel exhilarated. During the time of the Roman Empire a roman called Apicius assembled a few documents which described recipes prepared by the Romans. In his works, Apicius recounts how the roman meals were divided into starters, entrees and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius also informs us how the ancient Romans used many spices, including some familiar names for example bay, mint and parsley. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there were two interesting cookery books published in the 14th Century - a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they are nothing to do with the indian food that appears on menues today, but rather accounts of the types of food prepared by the cooks of the rich and wealthy people of those days. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and spices from Arab cuisine, such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices led to a surge in recipe manuscripts, some of which still exist in private cookery archives. By the arrival of the 20th century, cookery publications were increasing in popularity as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having more spare time and a general increase in wealth. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us celebrity chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this web site. |
