The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to prove the history of recipes way back into ancient history, in truth as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and maybe even further. However, in the main part, these old cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic recipes for meal preparation.
Later on, we find some books which appeared in the fourteenth century ; a recipe book called `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these two books are not about the indian curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals prepared by the chefs of the rich people of that time. By the advent of the twentieth century, cook books were greatly in demand mostly as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having increased spare time and being a little richer. |
