The History of Recipes
Academics have traced the existance of recipes back into distant history, at least as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, mostly, these old records were just primitive hieroglyphic recipes for preparing food.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe found, according to food historians are a few clay tablets in Sumerian describing the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel `blissful`. During Roman times around 25BC a Roman scholar, called Apicius, assembled some scrolls describing recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he recounts how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius also describes how the cooks of his times were skilled in the use of a wide range of herbs, including a few you will know like bay, rue and parsley. During the succeeding few hundred years, the wealthy families of Europe competed with each other to offer the most exotic meals, and as a result cooks and their collection of recipes were at a premium. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that fine cookery and cookery books became really popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, spent years to assembling, verifying, and writing down recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. By the arrival of the 20th century, recipe publications are in great demand, mostly as a result of increased literacy, more free time and having more money to spend. |
