The History of Recipes
Experts have proved the existence of recipes way back into antiquity, at least as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. However, generally, these early records were just basic pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
Much later, in Roman times a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts which described recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvre, main course and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. He also tells us how the cooks of Roman times made use of many aromatic flavors, including a few you will know like basil, mint and asafoetida. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many new foods and spices from Arab cooking, such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes caused a torrent in books on cookery, many of which are now in academic collections. The TV revolution brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this. |
