The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to prove the history of recipes far back into antiquity, at least as far as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, these, old cook books were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for preparing meals.
During Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote some scripts describing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also informs us how the ancient cooks were skilled in the use of a good variety of aromatic flavors, including some that we all recognise for example thyme, mint and parsley. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods and herbs from the East, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new herbs and spices prompted an eruption in recipe publications, most of which still exist in academic collections. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us cooking programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
