The History of Recipes
We can trace the history of written recipes back into the distant past, at least as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Having said that, in the main part, these old cook books were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a number of scripts describing recipes prepared by the Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and dessert, something we still use today. This early Roman chef recounts how the cooks of his times made use of a wide range of spices and herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, rue and asafoetida. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back many foods and herbs from Arab cooking, such as coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new foods and spices caused a torrent in publications on food, most of which are kept safe in academic collections. The introduction of the TV brought us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly up to date and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on this recipe site. |
