The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to follow the history of written cooking instructions back into history, in truth as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, sadly, these early cook books were just primitive hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the oldest recipe discovered, according to historians is a series of clay tablets in the Sumerian language which recount the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made drinkers feel wonderful and blissful. Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a number of documents detailing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius describes how the roman meals were separated into starters, main course and desserts, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef informs us how the ancient Romans used a wide range of aromatic flavours, including some that we all recognise for example basil, fennel and parsley. For the decades that followed, the rich and powerful families of Wesstern Europe competed to offer the best banquets, and consequentially chefs and their collection of recipes were much in demand. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that cookery and recipe books became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes common in their social group. By the time we get to the 1900s, cookery books were in great demand, due to better eduction, leisure time and having more money. The arrival of television brings us TV cookery programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on our site. |
