The History of Recipes
Experts have proved the existance of recipes back into distant history, in truth as far as early Egypt, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, sadly, these ancient recipes were just basic pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to historians are a few clay tablets in the Sumerian language which show the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel `wonderful`. During the time of the Roman Empire a Roman scholar, called Apicius, assembled some scrolls which described recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, main meal and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he recounts how the chefs of Roman times were skilled in the use of a good variety of aromatic flavors, including some familiar names like bay, mint and dill. Over the following few hundred years, the wealthy families of Europe tried to lay on the most extravagent meals, and because of this the best chefs and their collection of recipes were greatly in demand. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 19th century that cookery and recipe collections really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to collecting, trying out, and writing down recipes to help cooks of their time. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us celebrity chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on sites such as this. |
