The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be traced far back into history, certainly as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these old records were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts are a few tablets in 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 drinkers feel `blissful`. As we move into Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some scripts describing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his publication, he recounts how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. He also describes how the early Romans made use of many different spices and herbs, including some familiar names for example basil, mint and dill. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many foods and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and spices caused a torrent in recipe books, the majority of which are now in private libraries. During the next few centuries, the rich families of Europe competed with each other to lay on the most exotic meals, and because of this the best cooks and their collection of recipes became highly prized. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cookery and cookery books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, testing, and writing down recipes of the day. The revolution that is television brought us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on this site. |
