The History of Recipes
Written recipes as an idea can be tracked back into the distant past, in fact as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these old cook books were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history is a collection of clay 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 wonderful and blissful. Progressing into Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius assembled some documents showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main course and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius also recounts how the Romans made use of a wide range of herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as thyme, fennel and parsley. Over the succeeding few centuries, the powerful families of Europe strove to serve the most exotic meals, and because of this chefs and their recipes increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 19th century that cooking and recipe books became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to collecting, testing, and writing down the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookbooks are highly popular mostly as a result of more people being able to read, more spare time and a general increase in wealth. |
