The History of Recipes
It is possible to trace the history of meal recipes back into antiquity, certainly as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe even further. In practice though, sadly, these ancient cook books were just basic pictorial instructions for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered, according to food historians are a few stone tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who drank it feel exhilarated and blissful. Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts detailing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, main meal and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef describes how the Romans used a wide range of herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like bay, mint and parsley. Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and spices from the holy land, including spices such as basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations created an eruption in publications on food, some of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. The arrival of television brought us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to search through thousands of recipes just like those on the site you are now reading. |
