The History of Recipes
Historians have proved the existence of recipes far back into ancient history, at least as far back as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, these, early recipes were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of documents detailing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and desserts, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef describes how the Romans were skilled in the use of many different aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like thyme, fennel and asafoetida. In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods and spices from Arab cuisine, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new culinary ideas created an increase in books on cooking, most of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. The introduction of television gave us TV cookery programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as this. |
