The History of Recipes

Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be tracked way back into ancient history, in fact as far as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Having said that, sadly, these old cookbooks were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.

The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe found, according to historians is a collection of stone tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who drank it feel exhilarated.

Later on, in The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a number of documents detailing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Additionally, he recounts how the early Romans used a good variety of aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as bay, fennel and asafoetida.

During the following few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of Wesstern Europe competed to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and as a result cooks and their collection of recipes were greatly in demand. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 19th century the formal cooking and cookery books really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collecting, trying out, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy.

By the time we get to the 1900s, cookery books were highly popular as a result of increased literacy, people having more free time and having more money.
