The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to prove the history of recipes way back into the distant past, in truth as far back as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these old recipes were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts is a series of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language describing 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 people feel blissful and exhilarated. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of documents detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and dessert, something we still use today. Aspicius also informs us how the ancient cooks used many spices and herbs, including a few you will know such as thyme, mint and dill. Over the next few centuries, the rich and powerful families of the West competed to serve the most extravagent meals, and because of this the best chefs and their recipe collections were highly sought after. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that fine cookery and recipe books rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collecting, testing, and publishing popular recipes of the day. By the arrival of the twentieth century, cookery books are highly popular mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having increased leisure time and disposable income. The introduction of television gave us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this site. |
