The History of Recipes
We are able to read the history of written recipes way back into the far past, at least as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, in the main part, these old records were just basic pictorial instructions for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe found, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are a few ancient 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 making those who drank it feel `wonderful`. Progressing into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius created a number of scripts detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into starters, entrees and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he recounts how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of spices, including a few you will know for example basil, fennel and parsley. Over the following few centuries, the rich families of the West competed to serve the most extravagent banquests, and as a result the best chefs and their recipes were highly sought after. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to collecting, testing, and publishing the recipes of their peers. When we get to the 1900s, cooking publications were highly popular as a result of increased literacy, people having increased leisure time and being a little richer. |
