The History of Recipes
We are able to trace the history of meal recipes way back into the far past, at least as far into history as the early Egyptians, and maybe further still. Having said that, these, early recipes were just very simple pictorial instructions for meal preparation.
Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius created a number of documents which described recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the roman meals were divided into appetizers, main course and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius also recounts how the cooks of his times made use of a good variety of herbs and spices, including some that we all recognise like thyme, mint and parsley. Later, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices created an increase in manuscripts on cookery, some of which are kept safe in private collections. Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on our site. |
