The History of Recipes
Food historians have proved the existance of recipes back into distant history, at least as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, mostly, these ancient cook books were just very simple hieroglyphic instructions for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe found, according to academics are a few ancient tablets in ancient 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 `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. During the time of the Roman Empire a Roman scholar, called Apicius, assembled some scrolls describing recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, main course and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius tells us how the early Romans were skilled in the use of many different spices and herbs, including many that are still in use today like bay, rue and parsley. Over the following few hundred years, the wealthy families of Europe competed with each other to offer the most exotic meals, and as a result the best cooks and their recipes were at a premium. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe publications became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, spent years to assembling, testing, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes like those on this recipe site. |
