The History of Recipes

It is quite feasible to follow the history of recipes far back into distant history, in truth as far back as early Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. However, sadly, these ancient cook books were just primitive pictorial instructions for food preparation.

Interestingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history is a series of ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel blissful.

Progressing into The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a collection of documents which described recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius describes how the meals were divided into starters, main meal and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius informs us how the cooks of his times used many aromatic flavours, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like thyme, mint and dill.

During the next few hundred years, the powerful and wealthy tried to offer the most extravagent meals, and because of this the best chefs and their recipes increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it was during the 19th century that fine cooking and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, trying out, and recording recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day.

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

And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on our site.
