The History of Recipes
Experts have proved the existance of recipes far back into the far past, at least as far back into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and potentially, even further back. However, generally, these ancient cook books were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to food historians are a few tablets in the Sumerian language which show the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made drinkers feel blissful. During the time of the Roman Empire a roman called Apicius created some documents describing recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his publication, he recounts how the meals were divided into appetizers, main meal and desserts, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef describes how the ancient chefs used many different aromatic flavors, including many that are still in use today for example thyme, rue and asafoetida. Over the following few hundred years, the powerful and rich competed with each other to offer the most extravagent banquests, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their recipe collections could command a high salary. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that fine cooking and cookery books became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collating, trying out, and recording recipes common in their social group. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us TV cookery programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the internet revolution, permitting us all to search through thousands of recipes like those on sites such as this. |
