The History of Recipes

We can track the history of `recipes` way back into the distant past, in truth as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, sadly, these old cook books were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.

In fact, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts is a series of ancient tablets in Sumerian describing the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel `blissful`.

Later on, there are a couple of interesting cookery books which were published in the 1300s ; a recipe book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these are nothing to do with the indian food that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of meals on the tables of the nobility of the time.

For the next few years, the powerful families of Wesstern Europe tried to serve the most extravagent banquests, and as a consequence, cooks and their recipe collections became highly prized. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s that fine cookery and recipe books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy.

The introduction of the TV brought us celebrity chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books.

And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes just like those on our site.
