The History of Recipes
Historians have traced the existence of recipes way back into the distant past, at least as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these early cook books were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to food historians are some ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe 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 anyone who tried it feel wonderful. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts describing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals were split into appetizers, main meal and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he describes how the early Romans were skilled in the use of many herbs and spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as thyme, mint and asafoetida. Over the next few centuries, the powerful families of the West competed with each other to offer the best banquets, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipes could command a high salary. Even so, it was during the 19th century that formal cookery and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to collecting, verifying, and publishing the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. By the arrival of the twentieth century, recipe books are in great demand, due to more people being able to read, people having more leisure time and having more money to spend. The introduction of television brought us TV cookery programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our web site. |
