The History of Recipes
Historians have traced the existance of recipes far back into the distant past, at least as far into history as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, these, ancient cookbooks were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to food historians is a series of tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the making 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`. During Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a few scripts detailing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his works, he describes how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, entrees and afters, a very modern way of dining. He also recounts how the cooks of Roman times used a wide range of herbs and spices, including some familiar names for example bay, rue and dill. Over the following few hundred years, the families of Europe competed to offer the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, cooks and their recipe collections were at a premium. However, it was during the 1800s that cooking and cookery books really came of age. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, verifying, and writing down recipes of the day. By the arrival of the 20th century, cookbooks were in great demand, due to more people being able to read, people having more free time and having more money to spend. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us TV cookery programs and the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes just like those on our web site. |
