The History of Recipes

It is quite feasible to trace the history of written cooking instructions back into the far past, at least as far back as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, these, old cookbooks were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.

In fact, the most ancient recipe found, according to experts is a collection of ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who drank it feel exhilarated.

Progressing into Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few scripts showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, main course and desserts, something that is very familiar to us today. He also describes how the ancient Romans made use of a good variety of spices, including some familiar names like basil, mint and parsley.

Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new foods, spices and herbs from the Middle-East, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations prompted a torrent in books on cookery, some of which are kept safe in private collections.

By the advent of the twentieth century, recipe publications are starting to become popular due to increased literacy, people having more free time and disposable income.

The introduction of the TV brought us celebrity TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books.

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