The History of Recipes
Experts have tracked the existance of recipes way back into the distant past, at least as far back as early Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, these, early recipes were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Progressing into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his works, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into starters, entrees and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. This early Roman chef tells us how the ancient Romans used many herbs and spices, including some familiar names such as thyme, fennel and dill. Over the following few centuries, the wealthy families of Europe strove to lay on the most extravagent meals, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipes became highly prized. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that fine cookery and cookery books became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collating, verifying, and writing down popular recipes of the day. The introduction of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on our web site. |
