The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to track the history of written cooking instructions way back into distant history, in truth as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and maybe further still. However, in the main part, these ancient records were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to food historians are some ancient tablets in Sumerian which recount the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel `blissful`. Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a number of documents which described recipes prepared by the Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and desserts, something we still use today. He also tells us how the chefs of Roman times used a wide range of aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as basil, fennel and asafoetida. Moving on, there were two interesting cookery books which appeared in the 14th Century - a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, these books are unconnected to the spicy food that is familiar to us all today, but instead recipes for the types of meals eaten by the rich and wealthy people of those days. Later, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and herbs from the East, including coriander, parsley, and basil. These new herbs and spices caused an eruption in cookery books, most of which are now in private collections. By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookery publications were increasing in popularity mostly as a result of increased literacy, people having more leisure time and having more money to spend. |
