The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to track the history of transcribed cooking instructions far back into distant history, at least as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further. Having said that, mostly, these early cook books were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts is a series of tablets in ancient 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 and blissful. Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a few documents describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his publication, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he informs us how the ancient cooks made use of a wide range of spices, including some familiar names for example basil, mint and dill. Moving on, we find a couple of interesting books which date from the 1300s : a recipe book called `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these books are nothing to do with the curry that is popular today, but rather accounts of the types of meals eaten by the rich people of those days. Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices such as basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices caused a surge in manuscripts on cooking, many of which are now in private cookery archives. During the following few centuries, the powerful and wealthy competed with each other to serve up the most exotic meals, and because of this chefs and their collection of recipes became highly prized. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 1800s that cooking and recipe collections became really popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, testing, and writing down recipes common in their social group. By the advent of the 1900s, cook books were in high demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, more spare time and disposable income. |
