The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be traced back into the distant past, at least as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. However, generally, these ancient cook books were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe in existence, according to food historians are a few ancient tablets in the Sumerian language describing 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 drinkers feel exhilarated. Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts detailing recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. He also describes how the Roman chefs made use of many different herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, fennel and dill. During the following few hundred years, the wealthy families of the West competed to lay on the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s that haute cuisine and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, verifying, and recording recipes common in their social group. The arrival of television brought us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on the site you are now reading. |
