The History of Recipes
Historians have tracked the existence of recipes back into history, in truth as far back into history as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. Having said that, in the main part, these ancient cookbooks were just simple pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
Later on, in Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few documents detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius also informs us how the early Romans were skilled in the use of many different aromatic flavours, including some that we all recognise like thyme, fennel and dill. In the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from the holy lands, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas caused an explosion in publications on food, some of which are kept safe in academic collections. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes like those on our site. |
