In a medium-sized pan saute the onion with butter or margarine. When
onions feel soft, add mustard seeds. 30 seconds after that add cumin
powder, coriander powder, and turmeric powder. Mix the spices.
Drop carrots in pan and saute. Put the lid on for 5 minutes. Now add

The History of Recipes
Food historians have traced the existance of recipes back into distant history, certainly as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, in the main part, these old cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
Later on, in Roman times 25BC a Roman scholar, called Apicius, assembled some scrolls detailing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, main meal and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius describes how the cooks of Roman times used a good variety of spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like bay, mint and dill. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods, spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices like coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new foods and spices was responsible for an explosion in books on cookery, some of which still exist in academic collections. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on this web site. |
