The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as an idea can be observed way back into the distant past, certainly as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. However, sadly, these early records were just basic pictorial recipes for food preparation.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to historians is a collection of ancient tablets in ancient 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 having made drinkers feel exhilarated. Progressing into Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius tells us how the Romans used a wide range of herbs, including some familiar names such as thyme, fennel and dill. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from middle-east cuisine, such as coriander, parsley, and basil. These new herbs and spices led to an explosion in publications on food, the majority of which still exist in private cookery archives. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful families of the West competed to serve the most exotic meals, and because of this cooks and their recipes were greatly in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that fine cookery and cookery books really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to assembling, verifying, and writing down the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. The TV revolution brought us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes just like those on the site you are now reading. |
