The History of Recipes
It is possible to read the history of meal recipes way back into the distant past, in fact as far as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these early records were just primitive pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to food historians is a collection of stone tablets in Sumerian describing 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 anyone who drank it feel exhilarated and blissful. Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. He also recounts how the chefs of Roman times used a good variety of spices, including many that are still in use today for example bay, mint and dill. Later, there are two books dating from the fourteenth century ; a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these books are nothing to do with the indian curry that is served today, but instead recipes for the types of food on the tables of the upper classes of the period. Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many new spices and herbs from the holy land, including spices like parsley and basil. The introduction of these new herbs and spices caused a surge in books on cooking, some of which are now in private libraries. The arrival of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes such as those found on this web site. |
