The History of Recipes

Food historians have found proof that recipes existed far back into the distant past, in fact as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe further still. Having said that, mostly, these ancient cook books were just simple hieroglyphic recipes for preparing food.

Interestingly, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to experts in ancient history are some tablets in Sumerian which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who tried it feel wonderful.

Later on, in Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius created a few documents showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, main course and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius tells us how the early Romans were skilled in the use of a wide range of aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks for example bay, mint and dill.

In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and herbs from the holy land, including coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new foods and spices led to an increase in manuscripts on food, many of which are now in private libraries.

During the succeeding few hundred years, the upper classes strove to serve the most extravagent meals, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipes increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that formal cookery and recipe collections became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, spent years to assembling, trying out, and publishing recipes common in their social group.

Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes just like those on our site.
