The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to follow the history of recipes back into history, in truth as far as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, these, early records were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe found, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are some tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the making 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 wonderful. Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few scripts which described recipes prepared by the Romans. He tells us how the roman meals were divided into appetizers, main course and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius recounts how the Roman cooks used a wide range of herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today for example thyme, fennel and asafoetida. For the centuries that followed, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe tried to lay on the most exotic meals, and as a result the best cooks and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that cooking and recipe collections really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, verifying, and recording the recipes of their peers. By the time we get to the 20th century, recipe publications are increasing in popularity mostly due to increased literacy, more leisure time and being a little richer. The introduction of the TV brought us celebrity chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on our web site. |
