The History of Recipes
Academics have found proof that recipes existed way back into antiquity, in fact as far back as the early Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, mostly, these old recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Interestingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to academics is a series of clay tablets in ancient Sumerian describing the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel blissful. Later on, in Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few documents showing how to cook the recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, main course and afters, something we still use today. Additionally, he recounts how the Roman chefs were skilled in the use of many different aromatic flavours, including many that are still in use today such as bay, fennel and parsley. Closer to modern times, there were some interesting books dating from the 14th Century - a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these two books are not about the spicy food that is familiar to us all today, but instead recipes for the types of food on the menus of the upper classes of the time. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of spices and herbs from the Middle-East, including coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new foods and tastes led to an increase in cookery books, most of which are kept safe in private libraries. By the arrival of the 1900s, cookery publications are greatly in demand mostly due to increased literacy, people having more spare time and having more disposable income. |
