The History of Recipes
We can follow the history of `recipes` back into the far past, in fact as far back into recorded history as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. However, mostly, these old cookbooks were just very simple pictorial instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to experts in ancient history is a collection of stone tablets in ancient Sumerian describing the preparation 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 The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius created a number of documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were split into appetizers, entrees and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. Additionally, he recounts how the Roman cooks made use of many herbs and spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as basil, mint and asafoetida. For the centuries that followed, the rich families of Wesstern Europe strove to lay on the best banquets, and consequentially the best cooks and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that cookery and recipe publications rose to prominence. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collecting, verifying, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. The introduction of the TV brings us celebrity TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the internet revolution, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our web site. |
