The History of Recipes

We can read the history of meal recipes far back into antiquity, in truth as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, generally, these early recipes were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.

Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to historians is a series of clay tablets in ancient 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 anyone who drank it feel blissful and exhilarated.

As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there were two interesting books which appeared in the fourteenth century ; one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these are nothing to do with the spicy food that is familiar to us all today, but instead recipes for the types of meals on the menus of the rich and wealthy people of that period.

Over the following few hundred years, the upper classes competed with each other to serve the most extravagent meals, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipe collections were greatly in demand. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to assembling, testing, and publishing recipes to help cooks of their time.

The introduction of television gave us cooking programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes like those on this site.
