The History of Recipes

Recipes as a concept can be traced far back into ancient history, in truth as far as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these early recipes were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.

Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius assembled a few documents describing recipes cooked by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, main course and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. He also informs us how the early Romans made use of a good variety of spices, including some familiar names such as thyme, mint and parsley.

During the next few hundred years, the upper-class families of Wesstern Europe competed with each other to serve the most exotic banquets, and consequentially chefs and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe publications reached a high level of popularity. 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, testing, and writing down recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books.

And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes such as those found on this web site.
