The History of Recipes
We are able to track the history of written recipes back into the far past, in fact as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these early cook books were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to academics is a collection of stone tablets in the Sumerian language which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel exhilarated and blissful. As we move into The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius created a number of documents showing how to cook the recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, he tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also tells us how the Roman chefs used many herbs, including a few you will know like basil, mint and asafoetida. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of spices and herbs from Arab countries, including coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new herbs and spices created an eruption in manuscripts on food, most of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. During the following few hundred years, the rich families of Wesstern Europe strove to offer the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipes were at a premium. Even so, it wasn`t until the 19th century that formal cookery and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collating, verifying, and writing down recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. By the advent of the 20th century, cooking publications are greatly in demand mostly due to more people being able to read, people having more leisure time and having more disposable income. |
