The History of Recipes
We are able to track the history of `recipes` back into history, in fact as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, in the main part, these early records were just basic pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to food historians are a few stone tablets in Sumerian which show 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. During the time of the Roman Empire a roman called Apicius wrote a number of documents detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. He tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into appetizers, entrees and dessert, something we still use today. This early Roman chef tells us how the Roman cooks made use of many different herbs, including many that are still in use today for example bay, fennel and parsley. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including coriander, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations created an outbreak in recipe publications, many of which are kept safe in private collections. By the arrival of the 20th century, cook books were highly popular mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased free time and having more money to spend. The introduction of television gave us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes like those on the site you are now reading. |
