The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be tracked back into the distant past, certainly as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. In practice though, in the main part, these ancient records were just simple pictorial instructions for meal preparation.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe in existence, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are some ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel `blissful`. Much later, in Roman times a man called Apicius assembled a number of scripts detailing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. He describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into starters, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius tells us how the early Romans were skilled in the use of a wide range of aromatic flavours, including some familiar names like thyme, mint and asafoetida. Continuing our culinary historical journey, there are a couple of recipe books which appeared in the 14th Century ; one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, they have no connection with the indian food that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of food cooked for the rich and wealthy people of the time. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from Arab countries, including parsley and basil. The introduction of these new tastes was responsible for an explosion in recipe manuscripts, the majority of which are now in private cookery archives. When we get to the twentieth century, recipe publications were highly popular mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having more leisure time and being a little richer. |
