The History of Recipes
Historians have tracked the existance of recipes far back into the far past, certainly as far into history as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. Having said that, these, old recipes were just primitive pictorial recipes for preparing food.
During the time of the Roman Empire a roman called Apicius created a number of documents describing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into starters, entrees and afters, something we still use today. Additionally, he recounts how the chefs of Roman times used many different aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like basil, mint and dill. Over the following few hundred years, the families of Europe competed with each other to lay on the most exotic banquets, and consequentially chefs and their recipes increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 1800s that cooking and recipe books became really popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collating, trying out, and publishing recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day. The introduction of television gave us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to access thousands of recipes like those on sites such as this. |
