The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to track the history of recipes back into ancient history, in fact as far back into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, in the main part, these old cook books were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a number of documents showing how to cook the recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius also recounts how the ancient cooks made use of many different spices and herbs, including a few you will know for example basil, fennel and dill. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods, spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, such as parsley and basil. The introduction of these new tastes was responsible for an increase in books on cooking, the majority of which are now in academic collections. By the time we get to the 20th century, recipe publications were greatly in demand due to higher levels of literacy, people having more spare time and having more money. |
