The History of Recipes

Experts have traced the existance of recipes way back into the far past, in truth as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, these, early recipes were just primitive pictorial recipes for food preparation.

Interestingly, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to academics are some tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel exhilarated and blissful.

During Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a few documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius informs us how the Roman chefs made use of many spices and herbs, including a few you will know such as basil, fennel and asafoetida.

During the succeeding few centuries, the powerful and wealthy strove to lay on the most extravagent meals, and consequentially chefs and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. Even so, it wasn`t until the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe collections really came of age. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, testing, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy.

By the arrival of the 1900s, cook books were starting to become popular mostly as a result of better eduction, more spare time and having more money to spend.

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

And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this site.
