The History of Recipes
We are able to trace the history of written recipes way back into ancient history, certainly as far back into history as the Egyptians, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, mostly, these early records were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
As we move into The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a number of documents showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, he tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. This early Roman chef tells us how the cooks of Roman times were skilled in the use of a good variety of herbs and spices, including some that we all recognise like bay, mint and asafoetida. During the next few centuries, the powerful families of Wesstern Europe strove to serve the most exotic meals, and because of this chefs and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s the formal cooking and cookery books really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. The revolution that is television brought us TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on our web site. |
