The History of Recipes
We are able to trace the history of `recipes` back into ancient history, in fact as far as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these early recipes were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote some documents showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. This early Roman chef recounts how the Romans used many spices and herbs, including a few you will know for example thyme, fennel and asafoetida. For the decades that followed, the powerful and wealthy houses strove to serve the most exotic banquets, and because of this the best chefs and their recipe collections were highly sought after. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cookery and recipe collections became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to collating, verifying, and writing down popular recipes of the day. By the time we get to the 20th century, cookery books are increasing in popularity mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, increased leisure time and being a little richer. |
