The History of Recipes
It is possible to read the history of written recipes far back into distant history, at least as far as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, in the main part, these old cookbooks were just primitive hieroglyphic instructions for preparing meals.
During Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius created some scripts describing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals were split into starters, main course and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef recounts how the ancient cooks used a good variety of spices, including some familiar names for example basil, fennel and asafoetida. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods and herbs from Arab countries, including spices like basil and coriander. These new spices and herbs was responsible for an increase in manuscripts on food, some of which still exist in private cookery archives. By the arrival of the 1900s, cooking publications were in high demand, mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having increased spare time and a general increase in wealth. |
