The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be found back into the far past, certainly as far back as the Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these early cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the oldest recipe discovered, according to academics are some clay tablets in the Sumerian language 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 anyone who drank it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a number of documents detailing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals were separated into starters, entrees and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius describes how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of many herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, rue and asafoetida. Later on, there were two recipe books dating from the fourteenth century : a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, they are nothing to do with the curry that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of meals on the tables of the upper classes of that time. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought back a variety of spices and herbs from the holy land, including spices like parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and tastes was responsible for an outbreak in manuscripts on food, most of which still exist in private cookery archives. For the centuries that followed, the upper-class families of the West competed to serve up the most exotic banquets, and consequentially the best chefs and their collection of recipes were at a premium. However, it was during the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, spent years to collating, verifying, and recording the recipes of their peers. By the advent of the twentieth century, cookery publications were highly popular mostly due to better eduction, people having increased leisure time and having more disposable income. The introduction of the TV brings us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this web site. |
