The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to prove the history of recipes far back into the far past, in truth as far back as pharonic Egypt, and maybe even further. However, sadly, these early cook books were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
During Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius created a few scripts which described recipes cooked by the Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he recounts how the early Romans used many herbs, including many that are still in use today like bay, rue and dill. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many new foods and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices such as parsley and basil. These new herbs and spices caused a surge in recipe books, many of which still exist in academic collections. By the arrival of the 1900s, cookbooks were starting to become popular mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, leisure time and being a little richer. |
