The History of Recipes

It is quite feasible to track the history of written cooking instructions far back into the distant past, in fact as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these old records were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.

The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are a few clay tablets in the Sumerian language describing the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who drank it feel exhilarated.

As we move into Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and dessert, a very modern way of dining. He also describes how the early Romans made use of many herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like bay, fennel and dill.

Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices like coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and tastes created a surge in recipe manuscripts, most of which are now in private collections.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV gave us TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books.

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