The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be tracked way back into history, certainly as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. However, these, ancient cook books were just primitive pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe discovered, according to historians is a collection of tablets in Sumerian which recount the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel exhilarated and blissful. Later on, in The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few documents detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals were separated into starters, main meal and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also describes how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of a wide range of spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example bay, rue and parsley. Over the succeeding few centuries, the rich and powerful families of Europe competed to serve the most exotic banquets, and consequentially cooks and their recipe collections were greatly in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that cookery and recipe collections rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to assembling, testing, and recording recipes of the day. When we get to the 20th century, cookery publications are highly popular due to better eduction, people having more free time and having more money. The TV revolution brings us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on this recipe site. |
