The History of Recipes
Food historians have found proof that recipes existed back into ancient history, in truth as far as early Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these early recipes were just very simple hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
Later on, in Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius created some documents which described recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his works, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main course and afters, something we still use today. This early Roman chef tells us how the cooks of Roman times were skilled in the use of a good variety of spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as bay, mint and dill. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and herbs from Arab cooking, including rosemary and coriander. These new foods and tastes prompted a torrent in cookery books, most of which are kept safe in private libraries. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us celebrity chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on this web site. |
