The History of Recipes

Historians have tracked the existence of recipes way back into the distant past, in truth as far back into history as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. However, sadly, these ancient cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.

Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to experts in ancient history are a few ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian describing the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel `wonderful`.

As we move into The time of the roman empire 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a few documents which described recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the meals were divided into starters, main meal and dessert, something we still use today. Aspicius tells us how the Roman cooks made use of a good variety of spices and herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens such as bay, mint and dill.

Over the next few centuries, the powerful families of the West tried to serve the best banquets, and as a result the best cooks and their recipes increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that haute cuisine and recipe books really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, testing, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy.

The introduction of television brought us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books.

And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes such as those found on this site.
