The History of Recipes

Food historians have traced the existance of recipes way back into history, certainly as far back as early Egypt, and maybe even further. In practice though, generally, these ancient recipes were just very basic hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.

Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to 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 anyone who tried it feel wonderful and blissful.

As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts detailing recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius also informs us how the cooks of Roman times made use of a good variety of herbs, including many that are still in use today such as basil, fennel and dill.

Over the following few centuries, the rich and powerful families of Europe competed to lay on the most exotic meals, and consequentially cooks and their recipes were greatly in demand. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe publications became really popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording popular recipes of the day.

The arrival of TV brings us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them.

Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes such as those found on this web site.
