The History of Recipes
We can track the history of meal recipes way back into history, at least as far into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, these, old cook books were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few documents detailing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his works, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius tells us how the Roman cooks made use of many herbs and spices, including some that we all recognise for example bay, mint and asafoetida. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods and spices from the Middle-East, such as coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new culinary ideas created an eruption in recipe publications, the majority of which are now in private libraries. By the time we get to the 20th century, cookery publications are in great demand, as a result of increased literacy, more free time and a general increase in wealth. |
