The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to track the history of written cooking instructions far back into the far past, in fact as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe further still. However, in the main part, these early cookbooks were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to food historians are some tablets in Sumerian which show 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 and blissful. Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a number of documents showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by the Romans. He describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, entrees and afters, something we still use today. Additionally, he informs us how the ancient Romans made use of many aromatic flavours, including some that we all recognise such as basil, fennel and dill. Moving on, we find some books which were published in the 14th Century ; a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, these two books are nothing to do with the curry that is familiar to us all today, but rather accounts of the types of meals on the tables of the upper classes of that time. Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and herbs from the holy lands, including basil and coriander. These new herbs and spices created an outbreak in manuscripts on food, most of which are now in private cookery archives. By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookbooks were greatly in demand mostly as a result of better eduction, people having more spare time and having more money to spend. Like it or not, the introduction of TV gave us TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
