The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as a concept can be tracked far back into the distant past, in fact as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, sadly, these old cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for preparing meals.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts is a collection of clay 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 making those who drank it feel wonderful. Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. He also tells us how the ancient Romans used a wide range of spices and herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks for example basil, fennel and dill. Later on, there are a couple of books which appeared in the 14th Century : a recipe book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these books are nothing to do with the curry that is served today, but rather accounts of the types of food on the menus of the nobility of the time. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back many new foods and herbs from middle-east cuisine, such as basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations created an outbreak in manuscripts on cooking, the majority of which still exist in private cookery archives. The introduction of the TV brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes just like those on this site. |
