The History of Recipes
We are able to follow the history of meal recipes back into ancient history, certainly as far as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, these, early cook books were just very basic pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe found, according to experts are some stone tablets in Sumerian which show the preparation 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. During the time of the Romans a roman called Apicius created a number of documents detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his publication, he describes how the meals were separated into appetizers, main meal and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he describes how the ancient Romans made use of many different aromatic flavours, including a few you will know like thyme, rue and asafoetida. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we find a couple of recipe books dating from the 1300s ; a recipe book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these two books have no connection with the indian curry that is served today, but rather accounts of the types of meals on the menues of the rich people of those days. Later on, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods, spices and herbs from the East, including spices such as parsley and basil. These new spices and herbs led to an explosion in recipe books, the majority of which still exist in private libraries. The arrival of TV gave us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes like those on our site. |
