The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to follow the history of transcribed cooking instructions back into ancient history, in truth as far into history as early Egypt, and maybe even further. However, generally, these early recipes were just very basic pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe in existence, according to experts is a collection of clay tablets in Sumerian which show 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 anyone who drank it feel blissful and exhilarated. Much later, in Roman times a man called Apicius assembled a number of documents detailing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and afters, something we still use today. This early Roman chef describes how the Roman cooks were skilled in the use of many different herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like basil, mint and dill. Continuing our culinary historical journey, there are a couple of cookery books which date from the 1300s ; a recipe book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these books are unconnected to the spicy food that is familiar to us all today, but instead descriptions of the types of food on the tables of the rich and wealthy people of the time. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of spices and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices such as rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new tastes caused a torrent in manuscripts on cookery, most of which are kept safe in academic collections. When we get to the twentieth century, recipe books are highly popular mostly due to more people being able to read, more spare time and disposable income. |
