The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to trace the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into antiquity, certainly as far into history as early Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, mostly, these early records were just basic pictorial instructions for food preparation.
As we move into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few scripts describing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the roman meals were split into starters, main meal and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he recounts how the cooks of his times made use of many herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks for example basil, rue and dill. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods, spices and herbs from the holy land, such as basil and coriander. The introduction of these new foods and spices caused an outbreak in manuscripts on food, some of which are kept safe in private libraries. The introduction of the TV brings us TV cooks and the spin-off recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
