The History of Recipes

We are able to trace the history of written recipes far back into the distant past, in truth as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these ancient recipes were just very basic pictorial instructions for food preparation.

Progressing into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts describing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, main course and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also recounts how the cooks of his times used many different spices and herbs, including a few you will know such as bay, rue and dill.

In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods and herbs from the holy land, including spices such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and spices created an increase in manuscripts on cooking, most of which are kept safe in private collections.

When we get to the 1900s, cooking books are in great demand, mostly as a result of better eduction, increased leisure time and having more money.
