The History of Recipes
We can follow the history of meal recipes way back into the distant past, certainly as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Having said that, these, old cookbooks were just simple pictorial instructions for food preparation.
In fact, the oldest recipe discovered, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a collection of tablets in Sumerian which describe the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel `wonderful`. Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a few documents detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also tells us how the ancient Romans used a wide range of herbs and spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as thyme, rue and parsley. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from the holy lands, including spices such as parsley, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations caused an explosion in recipe publications, the majority of which are now in academic collections. The arrival of television brought us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes just like those on our web site. |
