The History of Recipes
Historians have tracked the existance of recipes far back into ancient history, at least as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. Having said that, mostly, these early cook books were just basic pictorial recipes for meal preparation.
During the time of the Roman Empire a roman called Apicius compiled some scripts describing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his publication, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, entrees and dessert, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef informs us how the chefs of Roman times used many different herbs and spices, including some familiar names such as basil, rue and asafoetida. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods and herbs from the holy land, including spices such as basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices was responsible for an outbreak in publications on food, the majority of which are now in academic collections. By the arrival of the 20th century, cookery books are in great demand, mostly as a result of better eduction, increased leisure time and disposable income. |
