The History of Recipes
Food historians have proved the existence of recipes back into the far past, certainly as far as early Egypt, and potentially, even further back. However, mostly, these old cook books were just very simple hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to experts is a series of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel wonderful and blissful. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius created a few documents detailing recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were split into appetizers, main meal and dessert, a style of dining still practiced today. This early Roman chef informs us how the Roman cooks made use of many herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like thyme, fennel and parsley. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times we have a couple of cookery books which appeared in the fourteenth century - a recipe book called `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, these two books have no connection with the indian food that is popular today, but rather descriptions of the types of food prepared by the cooks of the rich people of the time. In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and herbs from the holy land, including spices like coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new herbs and spices led to an explosion in recipe publications, many of which are now in academic collections. Over the next few centuries, the rich families of Wesstern Europe competed to lay on the most extravagent meals, and consequentially the best chefs and their recipes became highly prized. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that haute cuisine and recipe collections became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, verifying, and recording recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. By the time we get to the twentieth century, cooking books were increasing in popularity as a result of more people being able to read, leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
