The History of Recipes
We are able to read the history of written recipes back into history, at least as far as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that maybe, these, ancient recipes were just basic pictorial recipes for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe in existence, according to food historians are a few stone tablets in the Sumerian language describing the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel wonderful and blissful. As we move into The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few scripts describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals were divided into starters, entrees and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef informs us how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of spices and herbs, including many that are still in use today like basil, mint and parsley. As we move on, there are two interesting books dating from the fourteenth century : a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, they are nothing to do with the indian food that appears on menues today, but instead descriptions of the types of food prepared by the cooks of the rich and wealthy people of that period. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many foods, spices and herbs from Arab countries, including spices like parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new herbs and spices was responsible for a surge in recipe publications, some of which are now in private collections. By the advent of the 20th century, recipe publications are in high demand, due to more people being able to read, people having increased spare time and having more money to spend. |
