The History of Recipes

Historians have tracked the existence of recipes far back into history, in truth as far back into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe even further. In practice though, these, early recipes were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for meal preparation.

As we move into The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a number of scripts which described recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, main meal and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. Additionally, he informs us how the Roman cooks used a good variety of herbs and spices, including some familiar names like thyme, mint and parsley.

Over the next few centuries, the powerful and rich houses tried to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and because of this chefs and their collection of recipes were much in demand. However, it was during the 19th century that cookery and recipe publications really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, verifying, and writing down recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day.

The introduction of television gave us celebrity chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books.

Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on our web site.
