The History of Recipes
Academics have tracked the existence of recipes far back into history, in truth as far back into recorded history as the Egyptians, and maybe even further. Interesting though that maybe, these, ancient cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a collection of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which recount 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 drank it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a few documents which described recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and afters, something we still use today. This early Roman chef tells us how the early Romans used a wide range of aromatic flavors, including many that are still in use today for example bay, mint and dill. Over the next few centuries, the powerful and wealthy tried to serve the best banquets, and as a consequence, chefs and their collection of recipes were greatly in demand. Even so, it wasn`t until the 19th century the formal cooking and recipe books became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes common in their social group. By the arrival of the twentieth century, cook books were increasing in popularity due to more people being able to read, leisure time and being a little richer. The introduction of television gave us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as this. |
