The History of Recipes

Written cooking instructions as an idea can be traced way back into the distant past, in truth as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, sadly, these old recipes were just primitive pictorial instructions for preparing food.

As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts which described recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his publication, he tells us how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, main course and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius informs us how the Romans made use of a wide range of aromatic flavours, including some that we all recognise like thyme, rue and parsley.

Over the next few hundred years, the powerful families of the West tried to serve up the most exotic banquets, and because of this cooks and their collection of recipes could command a high salary. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century the formal cooking and cookery books became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, trying out, and writing down recipes to help cooks of their time.

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

And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on sites such as the one you are reading now.
