The History of Recipes
It is actually possible to track the history of recipes far back into history, certainly as far back as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, generally, these ancient cook books were just basic pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history are some clay tablets in Sumerian which describe the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel wonderful. As we move into Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a number of scripts describing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius recounts how the Romans used many different spices and herbs, including a few you will know such as basil, fennel and asafoetida. During the following few centuries, the powerful and rich houses competed with each other to serve the most extravagent banquests, and because of this the best chefs and their recipes could command a high salary. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, testing, and writing down recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the advent of the 1900s, cook books are in high demand, as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having increased leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
