The History of Recipes

It is possible to read the history of written recipes far back into ancient history, in truth as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, in the main part, these ancient cook books were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.

Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius created a collection of documents which described recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into starters, entrees and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. Additionally, he describes how the cooks of Roman times made use of many spices and herbs, including some that we all recognise like bay, rue and dill.

For the decades that followed, the rich and powerful families of the West tried to serve the most extravagent meals, and as a result the best cooks and their recipe collections became highly prized. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that fine cookery and recipe publications really came of age. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated years of their lives to collating, testing, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time.

The arrival of television gave us celebrity chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this site.
