in a saucepan to melt it down.

The History of Recipes
We can track the history of meal recipes far back into ancient history, in fact as far back into history as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. Having said that, generally, these early cook books were just very basic pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
In fact, the most ancient recipe found, according to food historians is a series of tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made drinkers feel wonderful and blissful. Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled some scripts showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. He also informs us how the chefs of Roman times made use of many aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as basil, mint and asafoetida. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods, spices and herbs from the East, including coriander, parsley, and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices caused an outbreak in cookery books, the majority of which are kept safe in academic collections. By the time we get to the 20th century, cookery books were greatly in demand due to increased literacy, people having more leisure time and having more money to spend. The introduction of the TV gave us TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on our site. |
