The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be traced back into antiquity, in fact as far into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, generally, these ancient cook books were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for preparing food.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a collection of documents which described recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also recounts how the Roman cooks were skilled in the use of a wide range of spices and herbs, including some familiar names for example thyme, fennel and parsley. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new spices and herbs from the holy lands, including rosemary and coriander. These new foods and spices created a surge in cookery books, the majority of which are kept safe in private libraries. The revolution that is television brings us celebrity chefs and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting us all to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on this site. |
