The History of Recipes

Academics have found proof that recipes existed back into history, certainly as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these old records were just basic pictorial instructions for preparing food.

Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history is a series of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which recount the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel wonderful.

Later on, in Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few documents detailing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his publication, he describes how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he informs us how the ancient chefs were skilled in the use of many different aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs such as basil, fennel and parsley.

During the succeeding few hundred years, the wealthy families of the West competed to serve the most extravagent meals, and because of this cooks and their recipes increased in prestige. Even so, it wasn`t until the 19th century that fine cooking and recipe collections became really popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to collating, trying out, and publishing popular recipes of the day.

By the arrival of the 1900s, cooking books were highly popular as a result of higher levels of literacy, more free time and a general increase in wealth.

Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to access massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as this.
