The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to track the history of transcribed cooking instructions far back into distant history, in fact as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. In practice though, sadly, these old recipes were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe found, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are some ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which show the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a few documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by the Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius describes how the chefs of Roman times were skilled in the use of a wide range of spices and herbs, including some that we all recognise such as basil, mint and dill. Moving on, we find a couple of books which appeared in the 1300s - one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these are nothing to do with the curry that appears on menues today, but rather recipes for the types of food prepared for the rich and wealthy people of the period. Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and herbs from the East, such as coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new tastes prompted an outbreak in manuscripts on cooking, some of which are now in private libraries. By the advent of the 1900s, cook books were starting to become popular mostly as a result of increased literacy, more spare time and being a little richer. Like it or not, the introduction of TV gave us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on this site. |
