The History of Recipes

Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be traced far back into distant history, at least as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, these, ancient records were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.

In an interesting twist, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts are some stone tablets in Sumerian describing 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 people feel `blissful`.

During the time of the Romans a roman called Apicius wrote a few documents detailing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into starters, main meal and afters, a style of dining still practiced today. He also tells us how the Romans were skilled in the use of many herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today for example basil, mint and dill.

Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we find two recipe books which date from the 1300s - a recipe book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, they have no connection with the curry that is popular today, but instead recipes for the types of meals on the tables of the rich and powerful of the period.

Later on, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, such as coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new culinary ideas was responsible for an explosion in manuscripts on cooking, many of which are kept safe in private collections.

Over the next few hundred years, the powerful and wealthy competed to offer the most exotic meals, and because of this cooks and their recipes became highly prized. However, it was during the 19th century that cooking and recipe collections became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes of the day.

When we get to the 20th century, cook books were in great demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, more free time and disposable income.

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

And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our web site.
