The History of Recipes

Academics have tracked the existence of recipes way back into history, in fact as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, sadly, these early recipes were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.

Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history are a few tablets in the Sumerian language which show the preparation 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.

Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few documents showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius recounts how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Additionally, he recounts how the ancient chefs used many spices, including many that are still in use today for example thyme, rue and parsley.

Over the next few centuries, the rich and powerful families of Europe strove to serve the most extravagent meals, and because of this the best chefs and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 19th century that cookery and recipe books became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collating, testing, and recording recipes common in their social group.

By the arrival of the twentieth century, cookery publications are greatly in demand mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having increased spare time and a general increase in wealth.
