The History of Recipes
Experts have found proof that recipes existed way back into antiquity, certainly as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, sadly, these ancient cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to academics is a collection of tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who tried it feel exhilarated. As we move into Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, main course and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he describes how the chefs of Roman times used many herbs, including some familiar names for example bay, mint and parsley. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back a variety of spices and herbs from the holy lands, including spices like rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new tastes was responsible for a torrent in books on cookery, many of which are kept safe in academic collections. During the next few centuries, the upper-class families of Wesstern Europe strove to serve the most exotic banquets, and consequentially the best chefs and their recipe collections were at a premium. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that cookery and recipe collections became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collating, verifying, and writing down the recipes of their peers. By the advent of the 20th century, cooking books are greatly in demand mostly due to better eduction, people having increased free time and having more disposable income. The revolution that is television brings us TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on the site you are now reading. |
