The History of Recipes
We are able to follow the history of `recipes` way back into antiquity, in fact as far back as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these ancient records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few scripts showing how to cook the recipes cooked by the Romans. In his works, Apicius recounts how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef informs us how the ancient chefs made use of many different herbs, including some familiar names like basil, fennel and dill. Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of spices and herbs from Arab countries, including coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new spices and herbs created an eruption in recipe publications, some of which still exist in private libraries. The revolution that is television brings us TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on the site you are now reading. |
We hope you enjoy this Kick Yo' Ass Salsa recipe.
