The History of Recipes

We are able to read the history of `recipes` back into distant history, in fact as far back into history as the early Egyptians, and maybe further still. However, mostly, these ancient recipes were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.

The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe found, according to experts in ancient history are a few tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel exhilarated and blissful.

As we move into The time of the romans around 25BC a Roman scholar, called Apicius, assembled some scrolls showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. He also tells us how the chefs of Roman times were skilled in the use of a good variety of herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like bay, fennel and asafoetida.

During the next few centuries, the wealthy families of Europe strove to serve up the most exotic banquets, and as a result the best cooks and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s that cooking and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to collecting, verifying, and publishing recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them.

By the advent of the 20th century, recipe books were greatly in demand mostly due to increased literacy, more leisure time and a general increase in wealth.
