The History of Recipes

We can track the history of `recipes` way back into ancient history, certainly as far back as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these early cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.

Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to academics is a series of clay tablets in ancient Sumerian which show 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 drinkers feel `blissful`.

Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius created a few documents detailing recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into hors d`oeuvres, main course and dessert, a very modern way of dining. He also describes how the early Romans made use of many herbs, including many that are still in use today like thyme, mint and asafoetida.

Over the following few centuries, the rich families of Wesstern Europe competed to lay on the most exotic banquets, and consequentially chefs and their recipe collections were at a premium. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that haute cuisine and cookery books became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time.

The introduction of television brings us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books.

And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on the site you are now reading.
