The History of Using Seasonings in Cooking
The history of the use of seasonings is almost as along as the history of humans. The use of seasonings for food started in an accidental way when primitive humans discovered that the leaves, grasses, twigs and sticks that they used to prepare and cook their food and also wrapped leftover food in changed the taste of that food. For centuries people didn’t know of any way to preserve the food that they had cooked to keep it fresh so the food that was available usually smelled and tasted pretty bad. Using seasonings was a good way to mask the bad smell and taste and also keep the food a little bit fresher.
As civilization progressed spices and seasonings became extremely important in every culture. As a result seasonings become a sort of commodity. Many spices and seasonings that we commonly use today were considered more valuable than money in the ancient world because in many areas at that time spices and seasonings were very difficult to get. They were not commercially grown and harvested so spice merchants that had a steady supply of spices and seasonings became the most important merchants in a town very quickly. In the ancient world a handful of a spice like cardamom could cost more than an average worker’s yearly salary, and slaves were bought and sold for peppercorns and other seasonings.
Because the people of the Roman Empire preferred pepper to any other spice, their demand for pepper was nearly insatiable throughout the Roman era. Nearly every wealthy Roman would have pepper on his table during meals the way that we use at pepper at meals today except back then it was much more expensive and more of a status symbol. Kings and queens would regularly offer spices along with gold as tributes to their fellow rulers and wars were often fought just to gain access to places where spices were abundant.
During this time Arab traders ventured into Europe to sell spices and almost instantly the Europeans were hooked. The Arab traders made sure that they kept their spice suppliers and their supply routes secret and they were able to build huge fortunes selling spices to the European nobility. During this time the Phoenicians became the most well known spice sellers because of their unique location. The Phoenicians traded at a point right where the land route from India met the sea route from the Mediterranean so almost every spice that was known and used during that time came to the Phoenicians. The Phoenicians were experienced traders and they kept a tight hold on their spice monopoly for decades.
