The History of Recipes

It is quite feasible to prove the history of recipes way back into distant history, in fact as far as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. However, these, old recipes were just simple pictorial instructions for meal preparation.

Interestingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to academics is a series of tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the making 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`.

During Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a few documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his works, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, main meal and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius also describes how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of a wide range of aromatic flavors, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like thyme, fennel and parsley.

During the succeeding few centuries, the upper-class families of Wesstern Europe strove to lay on the most extravagent meals, and because of this cooks and their collection of recipes were at a premium. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that fine cookery and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on sites such as this.
