The History of Recipes
It is possible to follow the history of written recipes back into ancient history, at least as far as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these ancient records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius created some scripts describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals were split into starters, entrees and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. This early Roman chef describes how the cooks of Roman times used many different aromatic flavors, including some that we all recognise like basil, mint and dill. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new herbs and spices was responsible for a surge in recipe publications, the majority of which are now in private cookery archives. By the time we get to the 20th century, cooking books are in high demand, due to higher levels of literacy, people having more leisure time and disposable income. |
