The History of Recipes
We are able to follow the history of `recipes` way back into the far past, in truth as far as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. However, mostly, these ancient cook books were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts which described recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his works, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into appetizers, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. This early Roman chef describes how the cooks of his times made use of many spices, including some that we all recognise like bay, rue and dill. During the following few hundred years, the upper-class families of Wesstern Europe tried to lay on the most extravagent banquests, and because of this the best cooks and their recipes became highly prized. Even so, it was during the nineteenth century that fine cooking and cookery books became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, testing, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. By the advent of the 20th century, cooking books are increasing in popularity as a result of higher levels of literacy, more leisure time and disposable income. |
