The History of Recipes
Historians have tracked the existance of recipes far back into ancient history, in truth as far as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. However, in the main part, these early cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the oldest recipe in existence, according to food historians are some 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 having made those who drank it feel blissful and exhilarated. Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts detailing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, Apicius recounts how the roman meals were split into appetizers, entrees and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. Additionally, he tells us how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of many different aromatic flavours, including a few you will know like thyme, fennel and parsley. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought back many spices and herbs from Arab countries, including spices like coriander, parsley, and basil. These new foods and spices led to a surge in recipe manuscripts, some of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. The introduction of the TV brings us TV cookery programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
