The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to trace the history of transcribed cooking instructions back into antiquity, certainly as far back into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further. In practice though, mostly, these old records were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts detailing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he recounts how the ancient cooks used many aromatic flavors, including some that we all recognise such as bay, rue and asafoetida. Later, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from the East, including spices such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes caused an explosion in manuscripts on cooking, the majority of which are kept safe in private collections. By the advent of the 1900s, cooking books were highly popular mostly as a result of increased literacy, more spare time and a general increase in wealth. |
