The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as an idea can be found back into distant history, at least as far as the Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these early cook books were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe discovered, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a series of stone tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who tried it feel blissful and exhilarated. As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some documents describing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and afters, a very modern way of dining. He also describes how the ancient cooks used many different aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like thyme, rue and parsley. During the succeeding few hundred years, the rich families of Europe competed with each other to offer the most exotic meals, and because of this cooks and their recipe collections were highly sought after. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that formal cookery and cookery books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collating, trying out, and publishing recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. By the arrival of the 1900s, cooking publications are in great demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, more free time and being a little richer. |
