The History of Recipes

It is actually possible to trace the history of recipes way back into ancient history, at least as far as the early Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these early records were just simple hieroglyphic recipes for preparing meals.

The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe found, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are a few 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 wonderful and blissful.

As we move into Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius created a collection of scripts describing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were separated into starters, entrees and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also describes how the Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of aromatic flavors, including some familiar names for example bay, mint and dill.

During the next few centuries, the rich families of Europe competed with each other to serve the most exotic banquets, and as a result the best cooks and their recipes were greatly in demand. Even so, it was during the 1800s that cookery and recipe books became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collecting, trying out, and writing down the recipes of their peers.

By the advent of the 20th century, cooking publications are in high demand, due to increased literacy, people having more leisure time and being a little richer.

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

Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on our site.
