The History of Recipes
Academics have tracked the existence of recipes far back into history, certainly as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, sadly, these old records were just very basic pictorial recipes for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to food historians is a series of tablets in Sumerian which describe the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made those who drank it feel `wonderful`. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a few documents describing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. He recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main course and dessert, something we still use today. Aspicius tells us how the ancient Romans used a wide range of spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as bay, fennel and dill. Over the next few centuries, the powerful and wealthy competed with each other to lay on the most extravagent banquests, and consequentially cooks and their recipes could command a high salary. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that haute cuisine and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to assembling, testing, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the arrival of the twentieth century, cook books were in high demand, as a result of better eduction, people having more spare time and having more money to spend. The introduction of television gave us cooking programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on this recipe site. |
