The History of Recipes
It is possible to trace the history of meal recipes back into history, in fact as far as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. In practice though, generally, these old cookbooks were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius recounts how the meals were separated into starters, entrees and dessert, something we still use today. He also describes how the Romans made use of a good variety of spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like bay, rue and dill. During the following few hundred years, the wealthy families of the West strove to lay on the best banquets, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, testing, and publishing recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. By the time we get to the 1900s, cooking books were starting to become popular due to more people being able to read, people having more leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
