The History of Recipes
We can trace the history of meal recipes far back into distant history, in fact as far back into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Having said that, mostly, these old cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for preparing meals.
In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are some stone tablets in Sumerian which recount the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few scripts detailing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. He describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, main course and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also informs us how the Roman cooks made use of a good variety of aromatic flavours, including many that are still in use today for example bay, mint and parsley. Later, there were two recipe books published in the 1300s - one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, they are not about the curry that is popular today, but rather recipes for the types of meals cooked for the rich and wealthy people of that time. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and spices from the East, including spices such as coriander, basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices led to a torrent in manuscripts on food, many of which still exist in private collections. For the decades that followed, the rich and powerful families of Wesstern Europe competed to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and as a result chefs and their recipes were greatly in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the nineteenth century that formal cookery and recipe collections became really popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collecting, trying out, and recording recipes common in their social group. By the time we get to the 20th century, cookery books were highly popular as a result of increased literacy, leisure time and being a little richer. The arrival of television brings us TV cooks and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
