The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be tracked way back into the distant past, at least as far into history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, these, old recipes were just primitive pictorial instructions for preparing food.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe found, according to food historians is a series of stone tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who tried it feel blissful and exhilarated. Later on, in The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts detailing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into appetizers, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius tells us how the cooks of his times were skilled in the use of many aromatic flavors, including some familiar names for example thyme, rue and dill. Continuing our culinary historical journey, there are two recipe books which appeared in the 14th Century ; a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these two books are not about the indian curry that is served today, but instead descriptions of the types of food served to the rich and powerful of the time. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many foods and herbs from the Middle-East, such as basil and coriander. These new culinary innovations created an increase in recipe books, some of which are now in private collections. When we get to the 20th century, recipe books are in great demand, mostly as a result of increased literacy, people having more free time and having more money to spend. The TV revolution brought us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this. |
