The History of Recipes
We can read the history of meal recipes way back into ancient history, in truth as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe further still. In practice though, sadly, these ancient cook books were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history are a few ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian describing 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 tried it feel `blissful`. Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some documents which described recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, main meal and dessert, a style of dining still practiced today. This early Roman chef describes how the Roman cooks made use of a good variety of aromatic flavors, including a few you will know for example bay, mint and dill. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new foods and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including parsley and basil. These new culinary innovations led to an explosion in recipe publications, many of which still exist in academic collections. The introduction of the TV brought us celebrity chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the internet revolution, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes such as those found on sites such as this. |
