The History of Recipes
Academics have traced the existence of recipes far back into ancient history, at least as far into history as the Egyptians, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, generally, these ancient recipes were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to historians are some ancient tablets in Sumerian which recount the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel `wonderful`. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of scripts detailing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his works, he recounts how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and dessert, something we still use today. This early Roman chef informs us how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of a wide range of spices and herbs, including a few you will know like bay, rue and dill. In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods, spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas caused an outbreak in publications on food, most of which are kept safe in academic collections. The introduction of television gave us TV cookery programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on this site. |
