The History of Recipes
We can track the history of meal recipes far back into antiquity, in fact as far back into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe even further. Interesting though that maybe, these, ancient records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the oldest recipe discovered, according to historians are some 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 having made people feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a few scripts describing recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his works, Apicius recounts how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, entrees and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. Additionally, he informs us how the ancient cooks used a good variety of herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs for example thyme, fennel and parsley. For the next few years, the families of Europe competed with each other to offer the most extravagent meals, and consequentially the best chefs and their recipe collections were greatly in demand. Even so, it was during the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe publications became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collecting, verifying, and publishing recipes common in their social group. The introduction of the TV gave us TV cookery programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes such as those found on the site you are now reading. |
