The History of Recipes
We are able to track the history of meal recipes back into antiquity, in fact as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe even further. Having said that, in the main part, these early cookbooks were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into starters, main meal and dessert, something we still use today. Additionally, he describes how the Roman cooks used a good variety of aromatic flavors, including some familiar names like bay, mint and dill. Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and spices from Arab cooking, including spices such as rosemary and coriander. These new foods and spices was responsible for an eruption in publications on food, most of which are now in private collections. By the time we get to the 1900s, cooking books were greatly in demand as a result of more people being able to read, increased leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
