The History of Recipes

We are able to trace the history of written recipes far back into history, at least as far as the early Egyptians, and maybe further still. However, mostly, these early recipes were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.

The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered, according to experts is a series of clay tablets in ancient Sumerian describing the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel wonderful and blissful.

As we move on, we find two interesting books dating from the 14th Century - a recipe book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, they are unconnected to the spicy food that appears on menues today, but rather descriptions of the types of meals prepared by the cooks of the upper classes.

During the next few centuries, the powerful and rich houses competed with each other to serve the best banquets, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipes became highly prized. Even so, it was during the 19th century the formal cooking and recipe publications rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collating, testing, and writing down recipes of the day.

The revolution that is television gave us cooking programs and the spin-off recipe books.

And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes like those on this recipe site.
