The History of Recipes

Experts have traced the existence of recipes back into history, at least as far back as early Egypt, and maybe further still. However, mostly, these old records were just very basic hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.

Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to academics is a series of ancient tablets in Sumerian which describe 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 anyone who drank it feel blissful and exhilarated.

During the time of the Roman Empire a man called Apicius compiled a few documents detailing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius describes how the roman meals were divided into hors d`oeuvre, entrees and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. He also recounts how the early Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like bay, fennel and dill.

Over the following few hundred years, the wealthy families of the West competed to serve up the most extravagent meals, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipes were much in demand. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 1800s the formal cooking and recipe publications rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, spent years to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time.

By the arrival of the 20th century, recipe publications are in great demand, mostly as a result of better eduction, people having more leisure time and having more disposable income.
