The History of Recipes
It is possible to follow the history of written recipes back into ancient history, in fact as far as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these old cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius created some documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were divided into appetizers, main course and dessert, something we still use today. Aspicius also describes how the early Romans were skilled in the use of a wide range of herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today such as basil, fennel and asafoetida. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices such as basil and coriander. The introduction of these new herbs and spices created an increase in recipe manuscripts, many of which still exist in private cookery archives. The introduction of the 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, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on our web site. |
