The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be found far back into antiquity, at least as far back as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, these, early cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.
During the time of the Romans a roman called Apicius wrote some documents detailing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the roman meals were divided into starters, main meal and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. He also tells us how the chefs of Roman times were skilled in the use of many aromatic flavors, including some that we all recognise such as thyme, mint and dill. Later on, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods and herbs from the Middle-East, including spices like coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new culinary innovations was responsible for an explosion in cookery books, some of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. When we get to the 20th century, cook books are in great demand, mostly as a result of increased literacy, people having increased leisure time and disposable income. |
