The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be tracked far back into the distant past, at least as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. Having said that, sadly, these early cook books were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe found, according to experts is a collection of clay tablets in Sumerian which recount the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel `blissful`. Progressing into Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius created some documents detailing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into appetizers, main meal and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius also tells us how the chefs of Roman times used a wide range of spices, including a few you will know like basil, rue and dill. Later on, we find two interesting books which date from the fourteenth century ; a book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, they are unconnected to the indian curry that we all know today, but instead accounts of the types of food prepared by the chefs of the rich and wealthy people of the time. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought back many spices and herbs from the holy land, including spices like rosemary and coriander. These new foods and spices was responsible for an eruption in books on cooking, the majority of which are now in private cookery archives. By the advent of the twentieth century, cook books were in high demand, mostly due to better eduction, people having increased spare time and a general increase in wealth. The introduction of the TV gave us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on our site. |
