The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be traced back into the far past, in fact as far as pharonic Egypt, and maybe further still. In practice though, mostly, these old cook books were just very simple pictorial recipes for preparing food.
Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few documents describing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals were split into starters, main meal and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also recounts how the chefs of Roman times were skilled in the use of a wide range of aromatic flavours, including some that we all recognise like thyme, mint and parsley. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back many foods and spices from Arab countries, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and spices was responsible for an eruption in publications on food, the majority of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. By the advent of the twentieth century, cooking books were in high demand, as a result of more people being able to read, people having more spare time and being a little richer. |
