The History of Recipes
We are able to track the history of meal recipes back into the far past, in truth as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, generally, these ancient cook books were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius created some documents detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. He recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, main course and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius recounts how the ancient cooks were skilled in the use of many aromatic flavors, including some that we all recognise such as thyme, fennel and parsley. For the next few years, the powerful and rich competed to serve the most extravagent meals, and because of this cooks and their recipes were at a premium. However, it was during the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down popular recipes of the day. The introduction of the TV gave us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this. |
