The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be tracked way back into distant history, at least as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, generally, these early recipes were just very basic pictorial recipes for meal preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there were a couple of interesting books dating from the fourteenth century : a book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they are not about the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but rather accounts of the types of meals eaten by the upper classes of that time. In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from the holy land, including spices like parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices was responsible for an increase in recipe manuscripts, many of which are now in private cookery archives. The introduction of television brings us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this. |
