The History of Recipes
We are able to follow the history of meal recipes way back into the distant past, in truth as far back as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. In practice though, mostly, these ancient records were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts in ancient history are some clay tablets in the Sumerian language which recount the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel `blissful`. Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts which described recipes cooked by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius also tells us how the Romans were skilled in the use of many different herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as bay, rue and asafoetida. As we move on, there are two books which appeared in the 14th Century ; a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books are not about the indian curry that is served today, but rather descriptions of the types of meals served to the rich and wealthy people of that period. Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many new foods and herbs from Arab countries, including basil and coriander. The introduction of these new tastes led to a torrent in recipe books, some of which are now in private collections. The arrival of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes like those on this web site. |
