The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as a concept can be observed far back into the distant past, in fact as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and maybe even further. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these ancient recipes were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to historians are some tablets in ancient Sumerian describing 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`. Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few documents detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, something we still use today. Aspicius also tells us how the Romans used many different herbs and spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs for example bay, fennel and dill. Later, there are a couple of recipe books which were published in the fourteenth century ; one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these books have no connection with the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but instead recipes for the types of meals on the menus of the rich people of that period. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from the East, including rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new herbs and spices caused an explosion in publications on food, most of which are kept safe in private libraries. The arrival of television brought us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes like those on our web site. |
