The History of Recipes
We can track the history of `recipes` far back into the far past, certainly as far as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, these, old recipes were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a number of documents detailing recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also describes how the Romans made use of a wide range of aromatic flavours, including many that are still in use today for example bay, fennel and dill. For the next few years, the families of Europe competed to lay on the most exotic meals, and because of this the best chefs and their recipe collections were much in demand. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that cookery and cookery books became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes common in their social group. By the advent of the twentieth century, cookbooks were highly popular mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased leisure time and having more money. |
