The History of Recipes
Written recipes as an idea can be observed back into history, certainly as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, these, ancient recipes were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius created a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes cooked by the Romans. In his works, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, entrees and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. He also describes how the Roman chefs were skilled in the use of many different spices, including some familiar names like basil, fennel and asafoetida. During the following few hundred years, the rich families of Europe strove to offer the best banquets, and as a result the best cooks and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. However, it was during the 1800s that cookery and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collating, testing, and writing down recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. The arrival of television brought us TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing us all to access massive numbers of recipes like those on this recipe site. |
