The History of Recipes

Academics have tracked the existance of recipes way back into history, at least as far into history as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, generally, these old recipes were just primitive pictorial recipes for food preparation.

In fact, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to food historians is a series of stone tablets in Sumerian 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 those who drank it feel exhilarated.

Later on, there are two interesting books from the 1300s - a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, they have no connection with the spicy food that is popular today, but rather recipes for the types of food cooked for the rich and wealthy people of those days.

Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us many foods, spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new culinary innovations led to an eruption in recipe books, some of which are kept safe in academic collections.

For the next few years, the rich and powerful families of Europe strove to serve up the most exotic banquets, and as a result the best cooks and their collection of recipes became highly prized. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 19th century that cookery and recipe publications became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, testing, and recording popular recipes of the day.

By the advent of the twentieth century, cookery publications are greatly in demand due to increased literacy, people having increased free time and disposable income.

The introduction of the TV brings us TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books.

And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through thousands of recipes just like those on this site.
