The History of Recipes
Historians have traced the existance of recipes back into the distant past, in truth as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, generally, these early cook books were just very basic pictorial recipes for food preparation.
During Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a number of documents which described recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his works, he recounts how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he recounts how the cooks of his times were skilled in the use of a wide range of spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, mint and asafoetida. In the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many new foods and spices from Arab cooking, including rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new culinary ideas caused an eruption in recipe publications, the majority of which are now in private libraries. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on this web site. |
