The History of Recipes
Written recipes as an idea can be found way back into the distant past, in fact as far as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, these, ancient cookbooks were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
During the time of the Romans a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes prepared by the Romans. In his works, he describes how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, entrees and desserts, something we still use today. Additionally, he describes how the Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs for example basil, mint and parsley. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many new foods and spices from Arab cooking, including spices such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas led to an outbreak in books on cookery, most of which are now in private libraries. The arrival of TV brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on this recipe site. |
