The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to prove the history of written cooking instructions way back into distant history, at least as far back as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, generally, these ancient cookbooks were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to historians are a few ancient tablets in the Sumerian language describing the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel `blissful`. Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a few documents detailing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. He recounts how the roman meals were separated into starters, main meal and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius describes how the Romans made use of many spices and herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like bay, mint and asafoetida. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and spices from middle-east cuisine, such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new culinary innovations caused an outbreak in cookery books, many of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. By the arrival of the 20th century, cooking publications are highly popular as a result of higher levels of literacy, more free time and being a little richer. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us TV cooks and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through thousands of recipes just like those on this recipe site. |
