The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to prove the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into the distant past, in truth as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. Having said that, these, old recipes were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to experts is a collection of tablets in ancient Sumerian which show 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 anyone who tried it feel wonderful and blissful. Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius created some scripts detailing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. He describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main course and desserts, something we still use today. He also describes how the ancient Romans used a good variety of herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today like basil, fennel and parsley. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods and spices from the Middle-East, such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new herbs and spices caused an increase in books on cooking, most of which are kept safe in private libraries. For the next few years, the powerful and rich competed to offer the most extravagent banquests, and as a result cooks and their recipes became highly prized. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. By the advent of the twentieth century, cookbooks are in great demand, as a result of increased literacy, people having more free time and disposable income. The introduction of the TV gave us TV cookery programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on our web site. |
