The History of Recipes
We can read the history of written recipes back into the distant past, at least as far back as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, mostly, these ancient records were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius assembled some documents showing how to cook the recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he informs us how the ancient chefs used many different herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like bay, rue and asafoetida. Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including rosemary and coriander. These new foods and tastes prompted an outbreak in cookery books, many of which are now in private collections. By the time we get to the 1900s, recipe publications are highly popular mostly due to higher levels of literacy, more leisure time and having more money. |
