The History of Recipes
Experts have tracked the existance of recipes way back into ancient history, in fact as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these early records were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to food historians are some clay tablets in the Sumerian language 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 those who drank it feel blissful. Later on, in Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some scripts showing how to cook the recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he describes how the roman meals were split into starters, main meal and afters, a very modern way of dining. Additionally, he informs us how the Roman chefs used a wide range of herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today like basil, fennel and parsley. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and spices from the East, including spices like coriander, parsley, and basil. These new spices and herbs was responsible for an eruption in cookery books, the majority of which are kept safe in private libraries. During the succeeding few hundred years, the rich families of Europe strove to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and as a result the best chefs and their recipes could command a high salary. Even so, it was during the 19th century the formal cooking and cookery books became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to assembling, verifying, and recording recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. By the arrival of the 1900s, recipe books were greatly in demand as a result of increased literacy, people having increased leisure time and having more money to spend. |
