The History of Recipes

It is possible to read the history of `recipes` way back into antiquity, certainly as far back as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, mostly, these old cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.

In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to experts in ancient history are some ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe 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 drinkers feel wonderful and blissful.

Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few documents describing recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were separated into starters, main meal and dessert, something we still use today. This early Roman chef tells us how the ancient cooks made use of many aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks such as thyme, mint and dill.

Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods and herbs from the East, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes was responsible for an explosion in recipe manuscripts, many of which still exist in private collections.

For the decades that followed, the rich and powerful families of Europe competed with each other to lay on the most exotic meals, and as a result cooks and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. However, it was during the 19th century that haute cuisine and recipe collections became really popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated years of their lives to collating, trying out, and publishing popular recipes of the day.

The arrival of television brings us cooking programs and the recipe books that accompanied them.

Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this.
