The History of Recipes
It is possible to read the history of meal recipes way back into distant history, in fact as far as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, these, old records were just very basic pictorial instructions for food preparation.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of documents describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into starters, entrees and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also describes how the Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like bay, mint and dill. For the decades that followed, the upper-class families of Europe competed with each other to serve up the most extravagent meals, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipes were much in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that cooking and recipe collections rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collecting, trying out, and publishing recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. The arrival of television brings us cooking programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
