The History of Recipes

Food historians have proved the existance of recipes back into distant history, certainly as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe further still. However, in the main part, these ancient cookbooks were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.

During the time of the Roman Empire a Roman scholar, called Apicius, assembled some scrolls describing recipes cooked by the Romans. He describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, main course and desserts, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef informs us how the ancient chefs were skilled in the use of many different aromatic flavors, including many that are still in use today for example bay, mint and dill.

Over the following few hundred years, the wealthy families of Europe competed with each other to lay on the most extravagent meals, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipes were highly sought after. Nevertheless, it was during the nineteenth century that cookery and cookery books really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, spent years to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes of the day.

Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us cooking programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to access massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as this.
