The History of Recipes
Experts have proved the existence of recipes way back into the far past, in fact as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, in the main part, these old records were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history are a few tablets in Sumerian which describe the preparation 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. As we move into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of documents showing how to cook the recipes cooked by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, entrees and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he tells us how the ancient chefs made use of many aromatic flavours, including a few you will know for example thyme, fennel and asafoetida. Over the following few hundred years, the upper-class families of Europe strove to offer the most exotic banquets, and because of this the best chefs and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 1800s that fine cookery and cookery books became really popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down the recipes of their peers. By the arrival of the 20th century, cooking books are greatly in demand mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased free time and a general increase in wealth. |
