The History of Recipes
Historians have proved the existence of recipes way back into history, at least as far into history as early Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. However, in the main part, these ancient cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to experts in ancient history are some clay tablets in Sumerian describing 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 drinkers feel exhilarated. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into starters, entrees and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also tells us how the chefs of Roman times used many herbs and spices, including a few you will know such as bay, rue and dill. Over the next few centuries, the upper classes strove to serve the best banquets, and as a result chefs and their recipes increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe collections became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collecting, verifying, and writing down recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the arrival of the twentieth century, cookery books are greatly in demand due to increased literacy, increased leisure time and a general increase in wealth. The introduction of television gave us TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on our web site. |
