The History of Recipes

Written recipes as an idea can be tracked back into distant history, certainly as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these ancient recipes were just very basic hieroglyphic instructions for preparing meals.

Progressing into Roman times 25BC a Roman scholar, called Apicius, assembled some scrolls detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his works, Apicius recounts how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he recounts how the cooks of his times were skilled in the use of many different aromatic flavours, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like bay, mint and dill.

Later on, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of spices and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices like coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new spices and herbs created an increase in recipe books, some of which still exist in private cookery archives.

The TV revolution brought us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on this recipe site.
