The History of Recipes
We are able to track the history of `recipes` way back into the far past, in fact as far back as pharonic Egypt, and maybe further still. However, generally, these old recipes were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to historians are some tablets in Sumerian which show 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 anyone who drank it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote some scripts which described recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius describes how the Romans used many different spices and herbs, including some that we all recognise like thyme, mint and dill. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times we find two interesting recipe books from the 14th Century : one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these books are unconnected to the indian food that we all know today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals enjoyed by the upper classes of the period. In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many new foods, spices and herbs from the holy land, including parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and tastes caused an eruption in recipe manuscripts, most of which are kept safe in academic collections. Over the next few centuries, the powerful and wealthy houses tried to serve up the best banquets, and consequentially the best cooks and their collection of recipes were much in demand. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that fine cookery and recipe books became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collating, testing, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time. By the arrival of the twentieth century, cook books are starting to become popular due to better eduction, people having more leisure time and having more money. The introduction of television gave us celebrity TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to search through thousands of recipes like those on this site. |
