The History of Recipes

Experts have proved the existence of recipes far back into antiquity, certainly as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe even further. In practice though, in the main part, these old cook books were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.

As we move into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote some scripts detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. He also informs us how the Roman chefs made use of a good variety of herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today for example bay, rue and dill.

In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices such as coriander, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes prompted an explosion in books on cookery, some of which are kept safe in private cookery archives.

The introduction of television gave us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books.

And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes such as those found on our web site.
