The History of Recipes
Experts have proved the existance of recipes back into the far past, certainly as far into history as the Egyptians, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, mostly, these early records were just very simple pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
During the time of the Roman Empire a man called Apicius created a number of documents describing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he describes how the meals were separated into starters, entrees and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also recounts how the chefs of Roman times used many different spices and herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example basil, fennel and asafoetida. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many foods, spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices such as basil and rosemary. These new foods and tastes was responsible for an outbreak in manuscripts on cookery, many of which are now in private collections. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us cooking programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes like those on this recipe site. |
We hope you enjoy this Cappuccino Chocolate Cheesecake recipe.
