The History of Recipes
It is possible to track the history of `recipes` way back into the far past, in truth as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, generally, these early recipes were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a few documents detailing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and dessert, a style of dining still practiced today. He also recounts how the Romans were skilled in the use of a wide range of aromatic flavors, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example basil, fennel and dill. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back many foods and spices from middle-east cuisine, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices caused an outbreak in recipe publications, many of which are now in academic collections. The introduction of the TV brought us TV cookery programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
