The History of Recipes
Experts have proved the existance of recipes way back into the distant past, at least as far as early Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these early cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a collection of stone tablets in ancient 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 those who drank it feel blissful and exhilarated. During the time of the Roman Empire a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts describing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, main course and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius also recounts how the ancient cooks made use of many herbs and spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens such as basil, mint and dill. In the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many foods and herbs from Arab cuisine, including basil and rosemary. These new spices and herbs prompted an increase in manuscripts on food, some of which are kept safe in private collections. By the arrival of the 20th century, recipe books are in high demand, mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having more leisure time and being a little richer. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us cooking programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our web site. |
