The History of Recipes

Academics have traced the existance of recipes far back into the far past, certainly as far as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, generally, these ancient recipes were just very basic hieroglyphic recipes for preparing food.

Interestingly, the oldest recipe found, according to food historians is a series of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language describing the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel `blissful`.

As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we find a couple of cookery books which appeared in the 14th Century ; a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they have no connection with the spicy food that is served today, but rather descriptions of the types of food cooked for the rich people of the period.

During the succeeding few hundred years, the families of Europe competed to lay on the most extravagent meals, and as a result cooks and their recipe collections were at a premium. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that fine cooking and cookery books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to collecting, verifying, and recording the recipes that were being prepared for the better households.

Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on the site you are now reading.
