The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be traced way back into distant history, in truth as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, these, ancient recipes were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to food historians is a collection of stone tablets in ancient Sumerian 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 those who drank it feel exhilarated. During the time of the Romans a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of documents which described recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were split into appetizers, entrees and dessert, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef describes how the ancient Romans made use of many different spices, including a few you will know for example bay, rue and parsley. Later on, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and spices from Arab countries, including spices like coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes led to an outbreak in publications on food, the majority of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. Over the next few hundred years, the upper-class families of the West tried to offer the most extravagent banquests, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that cookery and recipe collections became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to assembling, verifying, and recording recipes common in their social group. When we get to the 1900s, cookbooks are increasing in popularity as a result of increased literacy, increased leisure time and disposable income. |
