The History of Recipes
We can trace the history of meal recipes way back into antiquity, in truth as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe further still. Having said that, sadly, these early records were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few scripts which described recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius also recounts how the chefs of Roman times were skilled in the use of many different aromatic flavours, including many that are still in use today for example basil, mint and dill. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought us many new foods and spices from middle-east cuisine, including parsley and basil. These new foods and spices prompted an explosion in manuscripts on cookery, some of which are now in private collections. By the advent of the twentieth century, cookery books were increasing in popularity as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having more spare time and having more disposable income. |
