The History of Recipes
We are able to track the history of written recipes way back into ancient history, in truth as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, sadly, these ancient records were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a collection of tablets in the Sumerian language describing the making 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`. As we move into The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some documents which described recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he describes how the meals were separated into starters, entrees and desserts, something we still use today. Aspicius also informs us how the ancient chefs were skilled in the use of a wide range of aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like thyme, rue and dill. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new foods and herbs from middle-east cuisine, such as coriander, parsley, and basil. These new foods and tastes was responsible for an outbreak in cookery books, most of which still exist in academic collections. During the next few centuries, the wealthy families of Europe tried to serve the most exotic meals, and because of this cooks and their recipes were greatly in demand. However, it was during the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe books became really popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to assembling, trying out, and publishing recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. The revolution that is television brought us celebrity chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
