The History of Recipes
We are able to follow the history of written recipes back into ancient history, in truth as far back into history as early Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, these, old records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius created a number of scripts which described recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his works, he describes how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main course and desserts, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef informs us how the Roman cooks used a good variety of herbs and spices, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as basil, mint and dill. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new foods and herbs from the East, including coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new culinary ideas caused a torrent in books on cookery, most of which are kept safe in academic collections. By the time we get to the 1900s, cooking publications were increasing in popularity mostly as a result of increased literacy, people having more leisure time and having more disposable income. |
