The History of Recipes

Recipes as an idea can be observed way back into history, in truth as far back as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, generally, these old records were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.

As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a collection of documents which described recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and afters, a very modern way of dining. He also recounts how the chefs of Roman times were skilled in the use of a good variety of herbs and spices, including some that we all recognise like basil, mint and dill.

Over the next few hundred years, the upper-class families of the West tried to offer the most exotic meals, and as a result the best cooks and their collection of recipes were at a premium. However, it wasn`t until the 19th century that formal cookery and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to collecting, verifying, and writing down recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them.

The arrival of TV brings us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them.

And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everybody to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on our web site.
