The History of Recipes

We can track the history of meal recipes way back into distant history, in truth as far as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, sadly, these early cookbooks were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.

The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are some tablets in the Sumerian language describing the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who drank it feel wonderful.

As we move into Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a number of documents detailing recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also tells us how the cooks of his times made use of many herbs and spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like thyme, rue and asafoetida.

During the following few centuries, the powerful families of Wesstern Europe competed to lay on the most extravagent banquests, and because of this cooks and their recipe collections were highly sought after. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV brought us TV cooks and the demand for the spin-off recipe books.

Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our site.
