The History of Recipes
Academics have tracked the existance of recipes back into the far past, in truth as far back into history as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, these, old recipes were just very basic pictorial recipes for food preparation.
As we move into Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius created a collection of scripts describing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also tells us how the cooks of Roman times made use of many herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today like bay, rue and dill. Later, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many spices and herbs from the holy lands, including spices such as basil and coriander. The introduction of these new foods and spices created an explosion in recipe publications, most of which still exist in private cookery archives. The revolution that is television brought us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our site. |
