The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be observed far back into the far past, certainly as far back as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Having said that, these, ancient cookbooks were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to experts are some tablets in the Sumerian language which recount the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel `wonderful`. As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a number of documents which described recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, Apicius describes how the meals were divided into appetizers, entrees and desserts, something we still use today. Aspicius recounts how the ancient chefs used many spices, including many that are still in use today such as bay, fennel and dill. Over the next few hundred years, the powerful and rich houses tried to offer the most exotic meals, and consequentially cooks and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that cookery and recipe books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collating, testing, and recording the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. When we get to the 1900s, cook books were starting to become popular mostly due to better eduction, more free time and being a little richer. |
