The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be tracked far back into the distant past, at least as far back as pharonic Egypt, and maybe even further. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these ancient cookbooks were just very simple pictorial recipes for food preparation.
As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a few scripts detailing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. He recounts how the meals were split into appetizers, main course and desserts, something we still use today. Aspicius also informs us how the cooks of his times were skilled in the use of a good variety of aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as basil, rue and dill. In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and herbs from the holy land, including spices such as coriander, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new herbs and spices created a torrent in books on cookery, most of which still exist in private libraries. The arrival of TV gave us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes such as those found on our site. |
