to 15 minutes., until macaroni and potatoes are tender.

The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be traced far back into the far past, in truth as far into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, these, early records were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
Continuing our culinary historical journey, we find two interesting recipe books published in the 14th Century : one book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these books are nothing to do with the spicy food that appears on menues today, but instead accounts of the types of food prepared by the cooks of the rich and wealthy people of the period. When we get to the twentieth century, cookbooks were starting to become popular as a result of increased literacy, people having more leisure time and having more money. |
We hope you enjoy this Alphabet Vegetable Soup recipe.
