The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as an idea can be observed back into history, in fact as far back into history as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, mostly, these early cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic recipes for preparing food.
Continuing our culinary historical journey, there are some books which date from the 14th Century - a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these two books are unconnected to the indian curry that we all know today, but instead accounts of the types of food eaten by the rich and powerful of the time. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of spices and herbs from the East, including coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new foods and tastes created an eruption in books on cookery, the majority of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. The TV revolution brought us TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on our site. |
