The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to follow the history of written cooking instructions back into antiquity, in fact as far back as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these old recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
As we move into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, main course and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius tells us how the Romans used many aromatic flavors, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, fennel and dill. Later, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of spices and herbs from the Middle-East, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new herbs and spices created a torrent in manuscripts on cooking, most of which still exist in private libraries. By the time we get to the twentieth century, cooking books were greatly in demand mostly due to increased literacy, more spare time and a general increase in wealth. |
