The History of Recipes

We can track the history of `recipes` way back into ancient history, at least as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and maybe even further. In practice though, generally, these ancient records were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.

In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to historians are some ancient tablets in the Sumerian language 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 making people feel `wonderful`.

Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some scripts describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals were separated into appetizers, entrees and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. He also recounts how the Roman cooks used a wide range of herbs and spices, including some that we all recognise such as basil, rue and parsley.

For the next few years, the rich families of Europe competed with each other to serve up the best banquets, and as a result chefs and their recipe collections were greatly in demand. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 1800s that cooking and recipe publications really came of age. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, verifying, and writing down popular recipes of the day.

The introduction of the TV brought us cooking programs and the spin-off recipe books.

And that neatly brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting us all to search through thousands of recipes just like those on our site.
