The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to trace the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into distant history, certainly as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and maybe further still. Having said that, these, old records were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe found, according to experts are some clay tablets in ancient Sumerian describing 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 drinkers feel `wonderful`. As we move into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a few documents detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into appetizers, main course and dessert, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef describes how the chefs of Roman times were skilled in the use of a wide range of spices and herbs, including some familiar names like thyme, rue and asafoetida. As we move on, there are two interesting cookery books published in the fourteenth century ; a recipe book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, they have no connection with the indian food that is popular today, but rather recipes for the types of meals on the tables of the rich people of that time. Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many new foods and spices from the holy lands, including spices like rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new culinary ideas was responsible for an explosion in publications on food, many of which still exist in private libraries. During the next few centuries, the powerful families of Europe tried to lay on the most extravagent banquests, and consequentially the best chefs and their recipe collections became highly prized. However, it was during the 19th century that fine cookery and recipe collections became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, trying out, and writing down popular recipes of the day. By the advent of the 20th century, recipe publications were increasing in popularity as a result of better eduction, people having increased free time and disposable income. |
