The History of Recipes
We are able to read the history of `recipes` back into antiquity, at least as far as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these ancient cook books were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some documents describing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he describes how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius describes how the ancient chefs made use of a wide range of spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example bay, mint and parsley. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us many spices and herbs from the holy lands, including spices such as parsley and basil. These new foods and tastes caused a surge in books on cooking, some of which still exist in private collections. The introduction of the TV brought us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting us all to search through thousands of recipes just like those on this recipe site. |
