The original poster wrote: "Great for parties...I rarely tell anybody
the ingredients until they have tasted this dish. Most think it is a
warm "crab dip"; all are amazed that it is artichokes.

The History of Recipes

It is possible to trace the history of written recipes back into the far past, at least as far back into recorded history as the Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. However, mostly, these old cook books were just primitive pictorial instructions for food preparation.

Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius created a few documents describing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also recounts how the ancient Romans used a wide range of aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs for example bay, mint and parsley.

Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many foods, spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including parsley, basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices prompted an eruption in publications on food, most of which still exist in private libraries.

The arrival of television brings us TV cookery programs and the spin-off recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as the one you are reading now.
