The History of Recipes

It is quite feasible to prove the history of written cooking instructions far back into antiquity, in truth as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these old recipes were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.

Closer to modern times, we find two interesting cookery books which were published in the fourteenth century ; a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these have no connection with the indian food that is popular today, but rather recipes for the types of food on the tables of the nobility of those days.

By the time we get to the twentieth century, cook books are increasing in popularity mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having increased spare time and having more disposable income.
