The History of Recipes

Historians have tracked the existance of recipes far back into antiquity, certainly as far into history as early Egypt, and maybe further still. Having said that, sadly, these early cookbooks were just very simple pictorial instructions for meal preparation.

During the time of the Roman Empire a roman called Apicius wrote some scripts describing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius tells us how the early Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of spices and herbs, including some familiar names for example thyme, mint and asafoetida.

In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods and herbs from Arab cuisine, including basil and rosemary. These new foods and spices caused an eruption in publications on food, the majority of which are kept safe in private cookery archives.

By the arrival of the 20th century, cook books are in high demand, mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having more spare time and disposable income.
