The History of Recipes

It is quite feasible to trace the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into antiquity, in truth as far back into history as the Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these ancient cookbooks were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.

Interestingly, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts are some ancient tablets in Sumerian which recount the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel wonderful and blissful.

As we move into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a number of documents which described recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and dessert, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he tells us how the ancient Romans used a wide range of herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today such as thyme, rue and dill.

During the next few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of Wesstern Europe tried to serve the best banquets, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their collection of recipes became highly prized. Even so, it wasn`t until the 19th century that haute cuisine and recipe collections rose to prominence. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to assembling, verifying, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy.

By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookery books were increasing in popularity due to more people being able to read, people having increased free time and disposable income.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books.

Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on our web site.
