The History of Recipes
Historians have found proof that recipes existed way back into distant history, in truth as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these ancient recipes were just very simple hieroglyphic instructions for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history is a collection of stone tablets in Sumerian which describe the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made drinkers feel blissful. As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main course and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. This early Roman chef recounts how the early Romans made use of many different aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like thyme, rue and parsley. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, there were two books which date from the fourteenth century : a book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these books are not about the spicy food that is popular today, but instead accounts of the types of meals enjoyed by the rich and powerful of the period. In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices like coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices created an increase in cookery books, many of which are now in private cookery archives. Over the following few centuries, the rich and powerful families of Europe strove to lay on the most exotic meals, and because of this the best chefs and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. Even so, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century the formal cooking and recipe collections rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, trying out, and publishing recipes to help cooks of their time. When we get to the 1900s, cookery publications are starting to become popular mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased free time and a general increase in wealth. |
