The History of Recipes
It is possible to trace the history of written recipes far back into the distant past, at least as far as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. However, generally, these ancient cookbooks were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a few scripts describing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his publication, he recounts how the meals were divided into appetizers, main meal and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef informs us how the ancient cooks made use of many spices and herbs, including some familiar names such as thyme, mint and asafoetida. Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods, spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices such as basil and rosemary. These new foods and spices led to an eruption in books on cookery, some of which are now in private libraries. By the time we get to the 1900s, cookbooks were in high demand, due to higher levels of literacy, leisure time and being a little richer. |
