The History of Recipes
Food historians have traced the existence of recipes far back into ancient history, at least as far into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, these, early recipes were just simple pictorial instructions for food preparation.
As we move into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of scripts detailing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into starters, main course and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Additionally, he describes how the cooks of Roman times were skilled in the use of a good variety of aromatic flavours, including many that are still in use today like thyme, mint and asafoetida. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods and spices from Arab cuisine, including spices like rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new culinary ideas was responsible for an increase in recipe manuscripts, most of which are now in private cookery archives. The introduction of television gave us TV cookery programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
