The History of Recipes
Academics have found proof that recipes existed far back into ancient history, at least as far as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these old recipes were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the oldest recipe in existence, according to food historians is a series of ancient tablets in Sumerian describing the making 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`. Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts describing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into starters, main meal and afters, something we still use today. He also tells us how the chefs of Roman times used many herbs and spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens such as thyme, mint and parsley. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back many foods, spices and herbs from Arab countries, including spices like basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices was responsible for an eruption in manuscripts on food, most of which are kept safe in private collections. For the decades that followed, the powerful families of the West competed with each other to lay on the best banquets, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that formal cookery and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collating, verifying, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the time we get to the 20th century, recipe books are in high demand, due to more people being able to read, people having increased free time and having more money to spend. The arrival of television brought us cooking programs and the spin-off recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on our web site. |
