The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to follow the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into distant history, in truth as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe even further. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these old recipes were just simple pictorial recipes for food preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to historians are some ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian describing 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 drank it feel `wonderful`. Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a number of documents which described recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius recounts how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius also describes how the cooks of his times used many different aromatic flavors, including some that we all recognise such as bay, rue and dill. For the centuries that followed, the upper-class families of the West tried to offer the most exotic banquets, and consequentially chefs and their recipe collections were much in demand. Even so, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cookery and cookery books really came of age. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down popular recipes of the day. The introduction of the TV brings us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
