The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be observed back into the distant past, in fact as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, generally, these old records were just simple pictorial instructions for meal preparation.
Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a few documents detailing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and dessert, something we still use today. This early Roman chef informs us how the Roman chefs used a good variety of herbs, including many that are still in use today for example thyme, rue and asafoetida. For the centuries that followed, the powerful families of the West competed to offer the most exotic meals, and because of this the best cooks and their recipes were much in demand. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s that fine cookery and recipe books really came of age. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes common in their social group. By the advent of the twentieth century, recipe books are in great demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, more leisure time and having more disposable income. |
