The History of Recipes
We can follow the history of meal recipes way back into antiquity, in fact as far back as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. In practice though, mostly, these early cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a number of documents showing how to cook the recipes cooked by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, entrees and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius recounts how the cooks of his times used a wide range of herbs and spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as bay, mint and parsley. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and spices from the East, such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes led to a surge in manuscripts on cookery, many of which still exist in academic collections. By the time we get to the 20th century, cookery books were greatly in demand as a result of increased literacy, more spare time and being a little richer. |
