The History of Recipes

Food historians have proved the existence of recipes far back into history, in truth as far as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, sadly, these early recipes were just simple hieroglyphic recipes for meal preparation.

Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to experts is a series of tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the baking 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 `blissful`.

As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times we find two interesting cookery books which were published in the fourteenth century : a recipe book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books are nothing to do with the indian curry that is popular today, but instead descriptions of the types of food on the tables of the nobility of the period.

In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and herbs from the holy land, including spices like coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations led to an outbreak in books on cooking, many of which are kept safe in academic collections.

Over the next few centuries, the powerful and wealthy tried to lay on the most extravagent meals, and consequentially the best chefs and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, verifying, and publishing recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day.

By the arrival of the twentieth century, cook books were increasing in popularity mostly as a result of better eduction, people having increased leisure time and disposable income.

The introduction of television gave us celebrity chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everybody to search through thousands of recipes just like those on our site.
