The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to track the history of recipes far back into the far past, in fact as far back into history as the Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, these, early recipes were just very simple hieroglyphic recipes for meal preparation.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts is a series of 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 people feel `wonderful`. During Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius created a number of documents showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. He tells us how the roman meals were divided into appetizers, main course and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he informs us how the ancient chefs made use of many different herbs and spices, including some that we all recognise for example basil, rue and dill. During the succeeding few centuries, the families of Europe strove to serve up the best banquets, and as a consequence, cooks and their recipe collections became highly prized. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century the formal cooking and recipe collections really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, verifying, and writing down recipes of the day. By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookbooks were greatly in demand due to more people being able to read, people having more spare time and disposable income. Like it or not, the introduction of TV gave us TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on our web site. |
