The History of Recipes
It is possible to track the history of `recipes` way back into the distant past, in fact as far into history as early Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, these, old cookbooks were just primitive pictorial recipes for preparing food.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a few documents showing how to cook the recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvre, main course and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also describes how the early Romans used a wide range of herbs, including some that we all recognise for example thyme, mint and asafoetida. Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices like parsley and basil. These new culinary innovations prompted a torrent in manuscripts on cookery, most of which are now in private cookery archives. The arrival of television brought us TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to search through thousands of recipes just like those on the site you are now reading. |
