The History of Recipes
It is possible to track the history of written recipes way back into ancient history, in fact as far back as the Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these old records were just very simple pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe in existence, according to historians is a collection of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language describing the baking 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 exhilarated and blissful. As we move into The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled some documents detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius describes how the early Romans made use of a wide range of herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today like bay, mint and asafoetida. During the next few centuries, the powerful families of Europe competed to serve the most extravagent meals, and as a consequence, chefs and their recipe collections were much in demand. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cooking and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, verifying, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time. By the advent of the 20th century, recipe publications were highly popular mostly as a result of more people being able to read, more spare time and having more money. The revolution that is television brought us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting us all to access massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
