The History of Recipes
Experts have traced the existence of recipes far back into ancient history, in fact as far into history as the Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these old cook books were just very simple pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
As we move into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a number of documents detailing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, main course and dessert, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef describes how the Roman cooks were skilled in the use of many different herbs and spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like basil, mint and dill. Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us many spices and herbs from Arab countries, including spices like coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new spices and herbs led to a torrent in recipe publications, the majority of which still exist in private collections. By the advent of the 1900s, cookery books were in great demand, mostly due to more people being able to read, people having increased leisure time and having more money to spend. |
