The History of Recipes
We are able to trace the history of meal recipes far back into the far past, certainly as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these old cook books were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
As we move into Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius created a number of documents detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius informs us how the chefs of Roman times were skilled in the use of many different herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, rue and parsley. Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and herbs from the holy lands, including coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new herbs and spices prompted an eruption in publications on food, some of which still exist in private collections. The revolution that is television gave us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes like those on the site you are now reading. |
