The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be traced far back into the far past, in truth as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, mostly, these early recipes were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to food historians are a few clay tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the preparation 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. Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few documents detailing recipes prepared by the Romans. He describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and dessert, a very modern way of dining. He also recounts how the Romans were skilled in the use of many herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today for example basil, mint and dill. For the decades that followed, the rich and powerful families of Europe competed to lay on the best banquets, and as a result chefs and their recipe collections could command a high salary. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that haute cuisine and cookery books became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collating, verifying, and recording the recipes of their peers. By the time we get to the 1900s, cookery publications are highly popular due to increased literacy, leisure time and having more money to spend. The arrival of television brings us TV cooks and the spin-off recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our site. |
