The History of Recipes
Historians have found proof that recipes existed far back into distant history, certainly as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. However, generally, these early recipes were just very basic pictorial recipes for preparing food.
Later on, in Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a collection of documents describing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his publication, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, main course and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. He also recounts how the cooks of Roman times used a good variety of spices, including a few you will know for example bay, rue and parsley. During the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful and wealthy competed with each other to lay on the most exotic banquets, and consequentially cooks and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. Nevertheless, it was during the nineteenth century that fine cookery and recipe publications became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, testing, and publishing recipes common in their social group. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on this web site. |
