The History of Recipes

Historians have tracked the existence of recipes way back into the far past, in fact as far as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. However, sadly, these old recipes were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.

As we move into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his works, Apicius describes how the meals were divided into appetizers, main course and dessert, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef recounts how the cooks of his times used a wide range of spices and herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like thyme, rue and dill.

In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and spices from the holy land, including spices like basil and coriander. These new herbs and spices led to an increase in publications on food, the majority of which still exist in private collections.

By the arrival of the twentieth century, cooking books are starting to become popular as a result of better eduction, people having increased leisure time and disposable income.
