The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be traced way back into the far past, at least as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, generally, these ancient recipes were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
Progressing into Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of documents describing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his scrolls, he describes how the roman meals were split into appetizers, main course and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. Additionally, he informs us how the Romans used many herbs and spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as basil, rue and parsley. During the following few centuries, the powerful and rich tried to serve the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, chefs and their recipes became highly prized. Even so, it was during the nineteenth century that cookery and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collating, verifying, and publishing popular recipes of the day. By the advent of the 1900s, cookbooks are increasing in popularity due to more people being able to read, increased leisure time and disposable income. |
