The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to follow the history of recipes back into history, certainly as far into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, these, ancient recipes were just simple pictorial recipes for preparing food.
Later on, there are a couple of interesting recipe books which appeared in the 1300s : one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, they are unconnected to the indian curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals prepared for the upper classes of the time. By the time we get to the 20th century, recipe publications are in high demand, mostly as a result of increased literacy, more free time and being a little richer. |
We hope you enjoy this Apple Breakfast Bar recipe.
