The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be tracked far back into distant history, at least as far back as ancient Egypt, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these ancient cookbooks were just simple pictorial recipes for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe found, according to historians is a collection of clay 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 tried it feel wonderful. As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a few documents detailing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he recounts how the Roman cooks made use of a good variety of spices and herbs, including many that are still in use today like bay, fennel and parsley. Over the following few centuries, the powerful and wealthy competed to serve up the most exotic meals, and as a result chefs and their recipes were much in demand. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s that cookery and cookery books became really popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, testing, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. When we get to the 1900s, cook books were highly popular mostly due to increased literacy, increased leisure time and having more money. |
