The History of Recipes
We can trace the history of meal recipes back into the far past, in truth as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. However, these, old records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts in ancient history are a few ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian describing 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 drinkers feel wonderful and blissful. Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius created a few documents which described recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his works, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, main meal and desserts, something we still use today. Aspicius tells us how the Roman chefs made use of many different herbs and spices, including some that we all recognise such as thyme, rue and parsley. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new spices and herbs from Arab countries, including basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices led to an eruption in recipe books, most of which are now in private cookery archives. For the next few years, the rich families of Wesstern Europe tried to offer the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that cookery and recipe books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collating, verifying, and writing down popular recipes of the day. The introduction of the TV brings us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on our web site. |
