The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as an idea can be traced far back into the far past, at least as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe even further. However, mostly, these ancient recipes were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius created some documents detailing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef informs us how the Roman cooks used a wide range of herbs and spices, including some that we all recognise for example thyme, fennel and asafoetida. In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods and herbs from the holy lands, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new herbs and spices prompted a surge in manuscripts on cookery, some of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. The arrival of TV gave us TV cookery programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes just like those on our web site. |
