The History of Recipes

Written recipes as a concept can be traced far back into ancient history, at least as far as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, in the main part, these early cookbooks were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.

Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history is a series of tablets in Sumerian which show the making 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 `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`.

As we move into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a number of documents describing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef tells us how the cooks of his times used many different aromatic flavors, including a few you will know such as bay, fennel and asafoetida.

During the next few hundred years, the upper-class families of the West competed with each other to serve the most extravagent banquests, and because of this cooks and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe publications rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collating, trying out, and publishing the recipes that were being prepared for the better households.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us cooking programs 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 access thousands of recipes like those on sites such as the one you are reading now.
