The History of Recipes
It is actually possible to trace the history of written recipes far back into the far past, at least as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. However, these, old recipes were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered, according to academics is a collection of clay tablets in ancient Sumerian 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 people feel blissful. As we move into Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius created a few scripts describing recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into starters, main meal and afters, a very modern way of dining. Additionally, he describes how the chefs of Roman times made use of a good variety of aromatic flavours, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens such as thyme, mint and asafoetida. Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods and herbs from the holy land, such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices was responsible for an eruption in manuscripts on cooking, the majority of which still exist in private collections. The revolution that is television gave us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes such as those found on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
