The History of Recipes

We can follow the history of meal recipes far back into ancient history, at least as far as early Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these ancient cookbooks were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.

Progressing into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of documents describing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his publication, he describes how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main course and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also informs us how the ancient Romans made use of many different spices and herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as basil, fennel and asafoetida.

For the centuries that followed, the rich and powerful families of the West competed with each other to serve the most extravagent meals, and because of this the best chefs and their recipe collections were greatly in demand. Even so, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cooking and recipe books really came of age. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, testing, and publishing popular recipes of the day.

By the time we get to the 20th century, cookery books are in high demand, mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having increased spare time and being a little richer.
