The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be observed back into antiquity, in truth as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, sadly, these ancient records were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe found, according to experts in ancient history are some tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel exhilarated and blissful. Much later, in Roman times a man called Apicius compiled a collection of documents which described recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. Additionally, he recounts how the cooks of Roman times made use of many different aromatic flavors, including many that are still in use today such as basil, fennel and dill. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful families of Europe tried to offer the most exotic meals, and as a result the best chefs and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s that cooking and recipe publications really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, trying out, and recording popular recipes of the day. When we get to the twentieth century, recipe publications were starting to become popular mostly due to increased literacy, people having increased spare time and a general increase in wealth. The TV revolution brought us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as this. |
