The History of Recipes
Academics have traced the existence of recipes way back into distant history, certainly as far back as early Egypt, and possibly even further. However, sadly, these early recipes were just very basic hieroglyphic recipes for preparing meals.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts are a few ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe 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 people feel wonderful. Later on, in Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a number of documents which described recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and afters, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef recounts how the ancient cooks used many spices and herbs, including some familiar names such as thyme, fennel and asafoetida. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many new foods, spices and herbs from Arab countries, such as parsley and basil. The introduction of these new foods and spices caused an eruption in manuscripts on cookery, most of which are kept safe in private collections. During the succeeding few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of Wesstern Europe tried to serve up the best banquets, and as a consequence, cooks and their recipe collections became highly prized. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 19th century the formal cooking and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collating, testing, and writing down popular recipes of the day. By the arrival of the 1900s, cookery books were increasing in popularity due to more people being able to read, people having more spare time and disposable income. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this site. |
