The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be traced far back into the distant past, in fact as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, generally, these old cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts are some stone tablets in 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 making anyone who drank it feel `wonderful`. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few documents describing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were split into starters, entrees and dessert, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef describes how the ancient cooks used many different aromatic flavors, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens such as thyme, fennel and dill. In the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices such as rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new tastes was responsible for an outbreak in manuscripts on food, the majority of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. Over the next few centuries, the wealthy families of the West competed with each other to offer the most exotic banquets, and because of this chefs and their recipe collections became highly prized. However, it was during the 1800s that formal cookery and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collating, trying out, and recording the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. The introduction of television brought us TV cookery programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the internet revolution, allowing us all to search through thousands of recipes like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
