The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as a concept can be traced far back into ancient history, certainly as far back into history as the Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. However, these, ancient records were just very basic pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to experts in ancient history are some ancient tablets in Sumerian describing 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 those who drank it feel `blissful`. Progressing into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of documents detailing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, entrees and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also informs us how the cooks of Roman times used many different aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks for example bay, mint and dill. Over the following few centuries, the rich and powerful families of the West competed to serve up the best banquets, and consequentially the best cooks and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to assembling, trying out, and publishing recipes common in their social group. When we get to the 1900s, cookery books are highly popular due to better eduction, more leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
