The History of Recipes

Food historians have proved the existence of recipes back into history, in truth as far back into recorded history as the Egyptians, and possibly even further. In practice though, these, ancient recipes were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.

Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to experts in ancient history is a collection of ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which describe the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel wonderful and blissful.

Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a number of scripts which described recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were split into appetizers, entrees and dessert, something we still use today. He also describes how the early Romans were skilled in the use of many different herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like thyme, rue and asafoetida.

Over the next few centuries, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe tried to serve the best banquets, and consequentially cooks and their recipes increased in prestige. However, it was during the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe books became popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, spent years to collating, verifying, and publishing recipes that were common in the better off homes of the day.

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

And that neatly brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes like those on the site you are now reading.
