The History of Recipes
We are able to track the history of `recipes` far back into the far past, in truth as far into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these ancient records were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
As we move into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a number of documents which described recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and dessert, something we still use today. Aspicius tells us how the Romans made use of a good variety of aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like thyme, rue and asafoetida. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new foods and spices from Arab countries, including coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new spices and herbs was responsible for a surge in manuscripts on cooking, the majority of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. By the advent of the 20th century, recipe publications are increasing in popularity as a result of more people being able to read, people having more spare time and being a little richer. |
