The History of Recipes

It is quite possible to track the history of recipes way back into the distant past, in truth as far back into history as the early Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, these, ancient cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic recipes for preparing food.

In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are some tablets in ancient Sumerian which show the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel wonderful.

Progressing into Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of documents showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his works, he recounts how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and afters, something we still use today. Aspicius tells us how the early Romans used a wide range of aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as thyme, mint and parsley.

Over the succeeding few centuries, the upper-class families of the West strove to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s that cooking and recipe collections became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to assembling, trying out, and publishing the recipes that were being prepared for the better households.

When we get to the twentieth century, cookery publications were greatly in demand as a result of more people being able to read, people having increased spare time and being a little richer.

The TV revolution brings us TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books.

And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to search through thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as the one you are reading now.
