The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to trace the history of written cooking instructions back into ancient history, at least as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, mostly, these old records were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
As we move into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius created some documents detailing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his works, he recounts how the meals were separated into starters, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he describes how the cooks of Roman times used a wide range of aromatic flavors, including many that are still in use today for example basil, rue and parsley. Later, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back a variety of spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices like parsley and basil. These new foods and tastes led to an increase in cookery books, the majority of which still exist in private libraries. Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as this. |
