The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be observed back into ancient history, at least as far back into history as early Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, mostly, these ancient recipes were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius created some scripts detailing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius informs us how the ancient Romans used a good variety of aromatic flavours, including some that we all recognise like bay, mint and asafoetida. Over the next few hundred years, the upper-class families of Europe competed to serve up the most exotic banquets, and as a result chefs and their collection of recipes became highly prized. However, it was during the nineteenth century that cookery and cookery books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collecting, trying out, and recording recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. The arrival of TV brings us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes such as those found on our site. |
