The History of Recipes
We can read the history of meal recipes back into distant history, at least as far back as the early Egyptians, and maybe further still. Having said that, mostly, these early cook books were just very basic hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to food historians are a few clay tablets in Sumerian describing the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who drank it feel exhilarated and blissful. Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled some scripts describing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius tells us how the Romans made use of many different aromatic flavours, including many that are still in use today such as bay, mint and dill. During the following few centuries, the rich and powerful families of the West competed with each other to lay on the most exotic banquets, and because of this the best chefs and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s that cookery and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collating, trying out, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the advent of the 1900s, cookery books were in high demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased leisure time and having more money to spend. |
