The History of Recipes
We can follow the history of meal recipes back into the far past, at least as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, sadly, these ancient cook books were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
In fact, the oldest recipe discovered, according to food historians are a few ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which recount 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 anyone who tried it feel exhilarated. Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius created a number of scripts describing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his publication, he recounts how the roman meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also tells us how the ancient cooks made use of a wide range of aromatic flavors, including a few you will know such as bay, fennel and asafoetida. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us many spices and herbs from the holy land, such as basil and rosemary. These new spices and herbs created an eruption in manuscripts on food, the majority of which still exist in academic collections. The arrival of television brings us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
