The History of Recipes
We are able to follow the history of `recipes` way back into ancient history, in truth as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. However, these, old recipes were just simple pictorial recipes for food preparation.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some documents which described recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into starters, entrees and afters, a very modern way of dining. He also describes how the Roman chefs made use of a good variety of aromatic flavours, including some familiar names for example basil, rue and dill. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices like coriander, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices was responsible for an outbreak in manuscripts on food, the majority of which are now in private cookery archives. By the advent of the 20th century, recipe books were starting to become popular mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased spare time and being a little richer. |
