The History of Recipes

Written cooking instructions as a concept can be observed far back into the far past, certainly as far back as the Egyptians, and possibly even further. However, in the main part, these early recipes were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.

In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe in existence, according to academics is a collection of stone tablets in 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 having made anyone who tried it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`.

During the time of the Romans a roman called Apicius created some documents describing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. He describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, entrees and dessert, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. He also informs us how the ancient chefs were skilled in the use of many herbs and spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like basil, fennel and parsley.

Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we find two interesting books from the 1300s : a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, they are nothing to do with the indian food that is served today, but rather accounts of the types of food enjoyed by the nobility of those days.

In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from Arab countries, including spices such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices led to a surge in recipe manuscripts, the majority of which still exist in private libraries.

When we get to the 1900s, cookbooks are in high demand, due to more people being able to read, more spare time and having more disposable income.
