The History of Recipes
We can read the history of `recipes` way back into antiquity, certainly as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further. Having said that, sadly, these early records were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe found, according to academics are a few stone tablets in Sumerian which describe the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel wonderful. Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a number of documents describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. He recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main course and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef informs us how the chefs of Roman times made use of many different aromatic flavors, including some that we all recognise such as basil, fennel and asafoetida. Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many spices and herbs from the East, including spices like basil and coriander. These new foods and tastes prompted a torrent in cookery books, some of which are now in academic collections. The arrival of television gave us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as this. |
