The History of Recipes

Recipes as an idea can be found far back into antiquity, at least as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these early records were just simple hieroglyphic recipes for meal preparation.

Later on, in The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote some documents describing recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his scrolls, he describes how the roman meals were split into starters, main course and afters, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also informs us how the Roman cooks made use of many different herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs for example thyme, mint and dill.

Over the succeeding few centuries, the powerful and wealthy houses competed with each other to offer the most exotic meals, and because of this the best cooks and their recipe collections were greatly in demand. Even so, it was during the nineteenth century that formal cookery and recipe books became popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to assembling, verifying, and publishing recipes common in their social group.

When we get to the 20th century, cook books are in great demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, more leisure time and being a little richer.
