The History of Recipes
Experts have traced the existance of recipes way back into antiquity, in truth as far back into history as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. However, in the main part, these ancient cookbooks were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
During Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few scripts which described recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, main course and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius informs us how the ancient chefs made use of many aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like basil, fennel and dill. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many new foods, spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices such as coriander, basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices prompted an increase in recipe books, most of which are kept safe in private collections. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
