The History of Recipes

Written recipes as an idea can be observed far back into antiquity, in fact as far back into history as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, these, ancient cookbooks were just basic pictorial recipes for preparing food.

In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts in ancient history are some stone tablets in Sumerian which describe 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 `blissful`.

Much later, in Roman times a roman called Apicius wrote some documents showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals were divided into appetizers, entrees and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. He also recounts how the cooks of Roman times used a good variety of spices, including some familiar names like bay, mint and dill.

Later on, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods, spices and herbs from Arab countries, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new herbs and spices led to a surge in books on cooking, some of which are now in private libraries.

Over the succeeding few hundred years, the powerful and wealthy houses strove to serve up the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, cooks and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. Even so, it was during the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe publications rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collecting, testing, and writing down recipes to help cooks of their time.

The TV revolution gave us TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books.

And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everybody to access thousands of recipes such as those found on this recipe site.
