The History of Recipes
Experts have proved the existance of recipes way back into the distant past, in truth as far as early Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. However, these, ancient records were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a series of ancient 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 anyone who drank it feel exhilarated. During the time of the Roman Empire a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts which described recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, entrees and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius recounts how the Roman chefs were skilled in the use of many herbs, including a few you will know such as bay, rue and dill. Over the following few hundred years, the powerful families of the West tried to lay on the most extravagent meals, and because of this the best cooks and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe collections became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collecting, verifying, and publishing popular recipes of the day. By the arrival of the 20th century, recipe books are increasing in popularity mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, more leisure time and being a little richer. |
