The History of Recipes
Academics have proved the existance of recipes back into history, at least as far back as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. In practice though, these, ancient recipes were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts are a few stone tablets in the Sumerian language which recount the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who drank it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. During the time of the Roman Empire a man called Apicius compiled a few scripts detailing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and dessert, something we still use today. Additionally, he tells us how the cooks of Roman times made use of many different aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as bay, mint and dill. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices such as rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new tastes created an increase in publications on food, many of which are now in private cookery archives. The introduction of television brought us TV cookery programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as this. |
