The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to trace the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into distant history, certainly as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further than that. However, generally, these old cookbooks were just very basic pictorial instructions for meal preparation.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are a few clay tablets in ancient Sumerian which show the making 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 wonderful. Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a few documents detailing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius recounts how the roman meals were split into starters, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he recounts how the cooks of his times used a good variety of herbs, including many that are still in use today for example basil, rue and asafoetida. Moving on, there were a couple of cookery books published in the 14th Century : one book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they are not about the spicy food that is served today, but instead accounts of the types of food cooked for the upper classes. Later, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods and spices from Arab cooking, such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and spices was responsible for a torrent in cookery books, some of which are kept safe in private libraries. Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us TV cooks and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes such as those found on the site you are now reading. |
