The History of Recipes
It is possible to trace the history of `recipes` back into antiquity, certainly as far as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, mostly, these ancient records were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius assembled some documents detailing recipes prepared by the Romans. He describes how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, something we still use today. Aspicius also informs us how the Romans were skilled in the use of many different herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as bay, mint and dill. Later, in the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods, spices and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices like parsley and basil. The introduction of these new tastes caused an explosion in publications on food, most of which are kept safe in private libraries. The arrival of television brought us TV cooks and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes like those on the site you are now reading. |
