The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to trace the history of written cooking instructions back into antiquity, at least as far into history as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, mostly, these early cookbooks were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
As we move into Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts detailing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, something we still use today. He also tells us how the early Romans used many herbs and spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example basil, mint and dill. Later, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many foods, spices and herbs from the holy lands, such as parsley and basil. The introduction of these new tastes created an explosion in recipe manuscripts, many of which still exist in private cookery archives. By the advent of the 1900s, cooking books were in great demand, due to better eduction, people having more spare time and having more disposable income. |
