The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to track the history of transcribed cooking instructions far back into the distant past, at least as far into history as the Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, generally, these ancient cook books were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius created a number of documents showing how to cook the recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the roman meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, main course and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also recounts how the cooks of his times were skilled in the use of a good variety of spices and herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example basil, rue and parsley. Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods and spices from the holy land, including rosemary and coriander. These new herbs and spices caused an increase in books on cookery, most of which are kept safe in academic collections. By the time we get to the 1900s, cookbooks were greatly in demand as a result of better eduction, more leisure time and having more money to spend. |
