The History of Recipes
Experts have traced the existence of recipes far back into antiquity, certainly as far back as the Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. However, these, ancient cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.
During the time of the Roman Empire a roman called Apicius wrote some documents describing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. He also describes how the Romans used a wide range of spices and herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as basil, fennel and dill. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices like parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices caused a surge in recipe books, some of which are now in academic collections. By the arrival of the 20th century, cook books are in high demand, due to more people being able to read, people having increased leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
