The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be observed far back into history, certainly as far back as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, these, ancient recipes were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe found, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a collection of clay tablets in ancient Sumerian which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel exhilarated. As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a number of documents describing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the roman meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. He also tells us how the chefs of Roman times made use of a good variety of aromatic flavors, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, rue and parsley. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we find a couple of interesting recipe books published in the fourteenth century - a recipe book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these books are nothing to do with the indian curry that appears on menues today, but instead accounts of the types of meals on the menues of the upper classes of that time. In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods and spices from the East, including coriander, parsley, and basil. These new culinary innovations caused an outbreak in recipe books, some of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. The arrival of TV gave us cooking 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, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on sites such as this. |
