The History of Recipes
Historians have found proof that recipes existed far back into antiquity, certainly as far back as the Egyptians, and maybe even further. In practice though, generally, these early cook books were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to food historians is a collection of clay 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 those who drank it feel exhilarated and blissful. Later on, in Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a number of scripts describing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also recounts how the chefs of Roman times were skilled in the use of a good variety of herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today like bay, rue and parsley. Closer to modern times, we find a couple of interesting recipe books from the 1300s - a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these are unconnected to the indian curry that we all know today, but rather recipes for the types of meals prepared by the cooks of the rich and wealthy people of that time. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and basil. These new culinary innovations prompted an eruption in recipe books, most of which still exist in private collections. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us cooking programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on our web site. |
