The History of Recipes
Historians have proved the existance of recipes way back into history, at least as far as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these old records were just very basic pictorial instructions for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts are a few stone tablets in the Sumerian language which recount 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 exhilarated. Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a number of scripts describing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into starters, entrees and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. He also informs us how the cooks of his times used a wide range of spices, including many that are still in use today like basil, rue and dill. Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods and herbs from Arab countries, including parsley and basil. The introduction of these new culinary ideas was responsible for a surge in books on cookery, some of which are now in private collections. By the time we get to the 1900s, cook books are in high demand, mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having more leisure time and having more disposable income. The TV revolution brought us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on our site. |
