always do that). Pour soup over meat. Cover and cook on LOW 7-8

The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be tracked back into antiquity, at least as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these ancient recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Much later, in Roman times a man called Apicius compiled a collection of documents describing recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals were divided into appetizers, main meal and afters, something we still use today. This early Roman chef describes how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of spices, including some familiar names for example thyme, rue and dill. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many spices and herbs from the East, including coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new foods and tastes created an eruption in manuscripts on food, most of which are kept safe in private collections. When we get to the twentieth century, cooking books were in great demand, mostly due to increased literacy, more leisure time and being a little richer. |
