The History of Recipes

Experts have tracked the existence of recipes far back into ancient history, in fact as far as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, sadly, these old cook books were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.

Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to historians is a collection of ancient tablets in Sumerian describing 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 people feel blissful.

As we move into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled some scripts showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into appetizers, entrees and desserts, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef tells us how the Roman chefs made use of a good variety of aromatic flavors, including a few you will know for example thyme, fennel and asafoetida.

In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us many new spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new foods and tastes led to an outbreak in cookery books, most of which still exist in academic collections.

Over the next few centuries, the rich and powerful families of the West strove to lay on the most exotic meals, and because of this cooks and their recipes were greatly in demand. However, it was during the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collecting, trying out, and writing down the recipes of their peers.

The introduction of television gave us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them.

Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes such as those found on sites such as the one you are reading now.
