The History of Recipes
Historians have proved the existance of recipes way back into antiquity, in truth as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, generally, these old records were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Much later, in Roman times a roman called Apicius assembled a number of documents describing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the roman meals were split into appetizers, main meal and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. He also informs us how the ancient chefs were skilled in the use of a good variety of aromatic flavors, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, rue and parsley. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the upper-class families of the West competed with each other to serve the most exotic banquets, and consequentially cooks and their recipes were highly sought after. Even so, it was during the 19th century that fine cookery and recipe publications rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to collecting, trying out, and recording recipes of the day. When we get to the twentieth century, cookery publications were in high demand, mostly due to better eduction, people having more free time and being a little richer. |
