your autoexec.bat and config.sys in another directory. I have a buncha
subdirectories in my path statement, but the autoexec.bat and

The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to follow the history of written cooking instructions way back into ancient history, in fact as far as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, sadly, these old recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
As we move into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. He recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also informs us how the chefs of Roman times made use of many different aromatic flavours, including some familiar names such as basil, fennel and dill. During the succeeding few centuries, the wealthy families of Europe strove to lay on the most extravagent meals, and as a consequence, cooks and their collection of recipes became highly prized. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that formal cookery and cookery books became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down popular recipes of the day. By the time we get to the twentieth century, recipe books were starting to become popular mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having more free time and disposable income. |
