The History of Recipes
It is actually possible to trace the history of recipes far back into distant history, in truth as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, mostly, these early recipes were just simple hieroglyphic recipes for preparing meals.
As we move into Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius created some scripts which described recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, main course and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius tells us how the early Romans made use of many spices, including a few you will know for example basil, rue and dill. During the next few centuries, the powerful and rich tried to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and as a result the best chefs and their recipes were at a premium. However, it was during the nineteenth century that formal cookery and cookery books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to collating, testing, and publishing recipes common in their social group. The revolution that is television gave us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
