The History of Recipes
Food historians have traced the existance of recipes way back into antiquity, certainly as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and maybe further still. In practice though, these, early records were just primitive pictorial recipes for preparing food.
Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts is a series of clay tablets in Sumerian describing 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 those who drank it feel blissful and exhilarated. During the time of the Roman Empire a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, entrees and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he recounts how the Roman chefs used many aromatic flavors, including a few you will know such as basil, rue and dill. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including coriander, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new herbs and spices led to an outbreak in manuscripts on cooking, some of which are now in private collections. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this. |
