The History of Recipes

It is actually possible to track the history of recipes far back into the distant past, at least as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these old recipes were just basic pictorial instructions for food preparation.

Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to food historians is a series of ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian describing 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 `blissful`.

As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a collection of documents detailing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals were separated into appetizers, entrees and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. This early Roman chef informs us how the ancient chefs used a good variety of herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like bay, fennel and asafoetida.

In the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and spices from middle-east cuisine, including basil and coriander. These new foods and tastes led to an outbreak in cookery books, many of which still exist in private libraries.

Over the following few centuries, the powerful families of Europe competed to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and because of this the best cooks and their recipe collections could command a high salary. However, it was during the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe collections really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them.

When we get to the 1900s, cooking books were highly popular as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having more spare time and having more money to spend.
