The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to prove the history of written cooking instructions far back into antiquity, in fact as far into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, sadly, these ancient cookbooks were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote some scripts showing how to cook the recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and desserts, a very modern way of dining. He also informs us how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of spices, including many that are still in use today like bay, fennel and dill. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods and herbs from the Middle-East, such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations prompted a surge in books on cookery, the majority of which still exist in private collections. By the advent of the twentieth century, cook books are greatly in demand mostly as a result of increased literacy, people having more spare time and having more money. |
