The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be traced way back into distant history, at least as far as the Egyptians, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these old records were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Much later, in Roman times a roman called Apicius assembled a few documents describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and desserts, something we still use today. This early Roman chef tells us how the ancient cooks used a wide range of aromatic flavors, including a few you will know such as thyme, mint and asafoetida. Later on, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from Arab countries, including spices such as coriander, basil and rosemary. These new foods and tastes prompted an eruption in recipe books, most of which still exist in private cookery archives. The TV revolution brings us cooking programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as this. |
