The History of Recipes

It is quite feasible to track the history of transcribed cooking instructions back into history, at least as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, these, old records were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.

In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe discovered, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are a few stone tablets in Sumerian which describe the preparation 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 blissful.

Later on, in The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts detailing recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main course and dessert, a style of dining still practiced today. This early Roman chef tells us how the ancient chefs used many aromatic flavours, including a few you will know such as thyme, rue and dill.

Later on, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods and herbs from the holy land, including spices like basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas prompted a torrent in publications on food, many of which are now in private collections.

Over the succeeding few centuries, the rich and powerful families of Europe competed to lay on the most extravagent meals, and consequentially the best chefs and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cookery and recipe collections rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, trying out, and publishing recipes common in their social group.

By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookbooks were increasing in popularity due to higher levels of literacy, more free time and being a little richer.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV gave us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books.

Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as this.
