The History of Recipes

Academics have proved the existance of recipes back into antiquity, in truth as far back as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these old records were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.

Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to food historians is a collection of clay 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 tried it feel `blissful`.

During the time of the Roman Empire a man called Apicius compiled a collection of scripts which described recipes cooked by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and afters, something we still use today. Additionally, he informs us how the ancient chefs made use of a wide range of aromatic flavors, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example bay, rue and asafoetida.

In the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many new spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices like coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new foods and tastes caused an explosion in manuscripts on food, most of which still exist in academic collections.

By the arrival of the 20th century, cooking books were starting to become popular mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased spare time and having more money to spend.

The introduction of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on sites such as this.
