The History of Recipes
Historians have proved the existance of recipes way back into history, at least as far as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. However, sadly, these old cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a collection of tablets in 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 drank it feel exhilarated and blissful. During Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, Apicius describes how the meals were divided into appetizers, main course and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. Additionally, he informs us how the cooks of his times were skilled in the use of many spices, including a few you will know such as thyme, rue and parsley. As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there were two interesting books dating from the fourteenth century : a recipe book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, these two books are not about the spicy food that appears on menues today, but rather descriptions of the types of food on the menues of the nobility of that period. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices led to an increase in cookery books, some of which still exist in academic collections. During the succeeding few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of Europe competed with each other to serve up the most exotic banquets, and because of this the best cooks and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. Nevertheless, it was during the nineteenth century the formal cooking and recipe publications became really popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collating, testing, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the arrival of the 1900s, cookery publications are in high demand, due to higher levels of literacy, more leisure time and being a little richer. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
