The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as an idea can be found far back into ancient history, certainly as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, mostly, these ancient records were just primitive pictorial instructions for food preparation.
As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled some scripts detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, main course and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. He also informs us how the Roman chefs used a wide range of herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, rue and asafoetida. Over the next few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of the West competed to serve the most exotic banquets, and as a result the best cooks and their recipe collections were highly sought after. However, it was during the nineteenth century the formal cooking and recipe collections became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to assembling, verifying, and recording recipes of the day. The arrival of TV gave us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to access thousands of recipes just like those on the site you are now reading. |
