The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as an idea can be observed back into antiquity, in truth as far as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these old recipes were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to experts in ancient history is a series of stone 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 drinkers feel wonderful. Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a number of documents detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main course and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he tells us how the ancient chefs made use of a good variety of herbs, including some that we all recognise for example bay, mint and dill. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods, spices and herbs from the East, including coriander, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new herbs and spices prompted an increase in recipe books, many of which are kept safe in academic collections. For the next few years, the powerful and rich houses competed to serve the best banquets, and as a result the best cooks and their recipes increased in prestige. Even so, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cookery and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording the recipes of their peers. By the advent of the twentieth century, cook books were highly popular due to increased literacy, people having more leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
