The History of Recipes

It is actually possible to trace the history of written cooking instructions way back into ancient history, at least as far as ancient Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, in the main part, these early cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.

The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a series of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which show the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`.

As we move into Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some scripts describing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into appetizers, entrees and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius also recounts how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of spices, including many that are still in use today like thyme, rue and dill.

During the following few centuries, the rich families of Europe competed with each other to serve the most exotic meals, and because of this the best chefs and their recipe collections were highly sought after. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that cooking and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, spent years to collecting, testing, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them.

The revolution that is television brought us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes such as those found on this recipe site.
