The History of Recipes

We can read the history of meal recipes way back into the distant past, in fact as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further. In practice though, mostly, these old cook books were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.

In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are a few stone tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount 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 blissful.

Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main course and afters, something we still use today. Additionally, he informs us how the Roman chefs used a wide range of aromatic flavours, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like basil, mint and dill.

Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back a variety of spices and herbs from the holy land, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes caused a torrent in manuscripts on cookery, most of which are now in private cookery archives.

For the next few years, the powerful families of the West strove to serve up the most exotic banquets, and consequentially chefs and their recipes were greatly in demand. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cooking and recipe books rose to prominence. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them.

By the advent of the twentieth century, recipe books are greatly in demand mostly due to better eduction, more spare time and being a little richer.

The introduction of the TV brought us TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to access thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as the one you are reading now.
