The History of Recipes

We are able to track the history of meal recipes way back into the distant past, certainly as far back as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further. However, generally, these ancient recipes were just primitive pictorial recipes for meal preparation.

Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a few documents describing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, he recounts how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main course and dessert, something we still use today. He also recounts how the ancient Romans used a good variety of herbs, including some that we all recognise for example basil, fennel and parsley.

Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many foods, spices and herbs from the holy lands, including spices such as basil and coriander. These new foods and spices prompted an increase in recipe manuscripts, many of which are kept safe in private cookery archives.

By the time we get to the 1900s, recipe books are in high demand, due to better eduction, more spare time and a general increase in wealth.
