The History of Recipes

It is quite possible to prove the history of recipes way back into antiquity, certainly as far into history as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further. Having said that, these, ancient cookbooks were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.

Interestingly, the oldest recipe in existence, according to experts in ancient history are some tablets in Sumerian describing the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel wonderful and blissful.

During Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few scripts describing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, main course and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius also tells us how the early Romans used many aromatic flavors, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like bay, mint and parsley.

In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods, spices and herbs from Arab cooking, such as parsley and basil. These new culinary innovations prompted an increase in books on cooking, many of which are kept safe in private cookery archives.

During the succeeding few centuries, the rich and powerful families of Wesstern Europe competed with each other to lay on the most exotic banquets, and as a consequence, cooks and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collating, trying out, and publishing recipes to help cooks of their time.

By the arrival of the 1900s, cookery books were in high demand, due to more people being able to read, more free time and a general increase in wealth.

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

Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as the one you are reading now.
