The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be observed far back into the distant past, at least as far back into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, these, ancient records were just simple pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to food historians is a collection of clay tablets in the Sumerian language which show 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 anyone who drank it feel wonderful. As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a few scripts describing recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and desserts, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef recounts how the cooks of his times used many herbs, including some that we all recognise like thyme, rue and parsley. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we find some recipe books which appeared in the 14th Century ; a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these are unconnected to the indian curry that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of meals eaten by the rich and wealthy people of the time. In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods and herbs from middle-east cuisine, such as parsley and basil. The introduction of these new tastes prompted an eruption in recipe books, the majority of which still exist in private cookery archives. When we get to the 1900s, cookbooks were in great demand, mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having more free time and having more money to spend. |
