The History of Recipes
It is possible to read the history of written recipes way back into history, in fact as far back into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, sadly, these ancient recipes were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his scrolls, he describes how the meals were separated into starters, entrees and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius recounts how the ancient chefs were skilled in the use of many spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks for example thyme, mint and parsley. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods and spices from Arab cooking, including spices such as coriander, basil and rosemary. These new foods and tastes was responsible for a surge in manuscripts on cooking, most of which are now in private libraries. The arrival of television brings us TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting us all to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
