The History of Recipes

Written cooking instructions as an idea can be traced far back into history, at least as far into history as ancient Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, these, old recipes were just very simple hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.

Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to experts are some 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 having made drinkers feel exhilarated.

As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a number of documents detailing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into starters, main course and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius also informs us how the cooks of his times were skilled in the use of a wide range of herbs, including many that are still in use today like thyme, rue and dill.

In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices like basil and coriander. These new culinary innovations was responsible for a torrent in recipe books, some of which are kept safe in private collections.

Over the following few centuries, the powerful and rich houses competed to offer the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their recipe collections became highly prized. Notwithstanding that, it was during the nineteenth century that cookery and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to assembling, verifying, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them.

When we get to the 1900s, cook books were in great demand, mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having increased free time and disposable income.

The arrival of TV gave us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on the site you are now reading.
