The History of Recipes
Historians have proved the existence of recipes back into ancient history, in fact as far as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. However, in the main part, these early cookbooks were just very simple pictorial recipes for preparing food.
Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius created some documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius describes how the roman meals were divided into appetizers, main course and dessert, something we still use today. Additionally, he recounts how the cooks of Roman times made use of a good variety of aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like basil, fennel and asafoetida. In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and herbs from middle-east cuisine, such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new herbs and spices created a torrent in recipe publications, many of which are now in private cookery archives. The introduction of television brings us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
