The History of Recipes
We can read the history of written recipes far back into antiquity, in truth as far as early Egypt, and maybe further still. Having said that, these, old cookbooks were just primitive pictorial recipes for food preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history are some ancient tablets in Sumerian describing the preparation 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 and exhilarated. As we move into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts detailing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvre, main course and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he recounts how the early Romans used a good variety of aromatic flavors, including many that are still in use today for example thyme, fennel and asafoetida. Moving on, we have two recipe books from the 1300s ; a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these are not about the indian food that is served today, but rather accounts of the types of food prepared for the rich people of that period. Later, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from the holy land, including spices such as basil and coriander. These new foods and tastes prompted a torrent in recipe manuscripts, some of which are now in private cookery archives. During the following few centuries, the upper-class families of Wesstern Europe competed to offer the best banquets, and consequentially chefs and their recipe collections became highly prized. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that haute cuisine and recipe publications rose to prominence. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collecting, trying out, and recording the recipes of their peers. By the advent of the 1900s, cooking books are in great demand, due to better eduction, leisure time and disposable income. |
