The History of Recipes

Experts have proved the existance of recipes far back into the distant past, in fact as far back as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, mostly, these ancient cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.

Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to historians are a few clay tablets in the Sumerian language 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 having made those who drank it feel exhilarated and blissful.

Progressing into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of documents detailing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he recounts how the meals were separated into starters, main meal and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius informs us how the Roman cooks were skilled in the use of many different herbs, including many that are still in use today for example bay, mint and dill.

In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices such as basil and coriander. These new foods and tastes was responsible for an eruption in books on cookery, the majority of which still exist in private libraries.

Over the following few centuries, the upper-class families of the West competed to offer the most exotic banquets, and because of this chefs and their recipe collections were greatly in demand. However, it was during the 19th century that fine cooking and cookery books really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collating, verifying, and recording recipes of the day.

By the arrival of the twentieth century, cookery publications were in great demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, leisure time and having more money.
