The History of Recipes

Historians have proved the existance of recipes far back into the far past, certainly as far back into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further. However, generally, these ancient recipes were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.

Interestingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to historians is a collection of clay tablets in Sumerian which describe the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made those who drank it feel wonderful and blissful.

During Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius created some documents detailing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his publication, he recounts how the meals were divided into starters, entrees and afters, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef tells us how the ancient chefs were skilled in the use of many different herbs and spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like thyme, fennel and parsley.

In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new foods and spices was responsible for a surge in manuscripts on cookery, the majority of which still exist in private collections.

By the arrival of the 1900s, cookbooks are highly popular mostly as a result of more people being able to read, increased leisure time and having more money.

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

Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to access massive numbers of recipes like those on our web site.
