The History of Recipes
We can read the history of meal recipes back into antiquity, in fact as far back into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these ancient records were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for preparing meals.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to historians is a series of clay tablets in the Sumerian language describing 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 people feel `wonderful`. Later on, in The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by the Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals were split into appetizers, entrees and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius informs us how the cooks of Roman times made use of many aromatic flavors, including some familiar names for example thyme, rue and asafoetida. Later on, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new spices and herbs from Arab cooking, such as coriander, basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices created an outbreak in manuscripts on cooking, the majority of which still exist in private collections. Over the succeeding few centuries, the upper-class families of Europe strove to lay on the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, cooks and their recipes were greatly in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that cooking and cookery books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down recipes common in their social group. The TV revolution brings us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
