The History of Recipes
We are able to read the history of `recipes` back into antiquity, at least as far back into recorded history as the Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, these, old cook books were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe in existence, according to experts in ancient history are some tablets in ancient Sumerian which show 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 tried it feel blissful. As we move into The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a collection of documents describing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into starters, main course and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also describes how the cooks of Roman times were skilled in the use of a good variety of herbs and spices, including some that we all recognise for example basil, mint and asafoetida. Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many foods, spices and herbs from Arab countries, such as coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new culinary ideas was responsible for a torrent in manuscripts on cooking, the majority of which are kept safe in private collections. By the advent of the 20th century, cooking books were in great demand, due to more people being able to read, more free time and a general increase in wealth. The revolution that is television brought us TV cookery programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to access thousands of recipes such as those found on our site. |
