The History of Recipes
Historians have proved the existence of recipes way back into distant history, certainly as far as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and quite possibly further than that. However, generally, these ancient recipes were just simple pictorial recipes for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to academics are a few stone tablets in ancient Sumerian which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who drank it feel wonderful and blissful. During Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his works, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius recounts how the Roman cooks used many different aromatic flavors, including some that we all recognise such as basil, rue and parsley. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new spices and herbs from the holy lands, including rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new foods and spices caused a torrent in manuscripts on cooking, many of which are kept safe in academic collections. Over the following few hundred years, the upper-class families of the West strove to lay on the most exotic meals, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipe collections were at a premium. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cooking and recipe collections became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
