The History of Recipes
Food historians have found proof that recipes existed back into the distant past, at least as far as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these ancient cook books were just very basic pictorial recipes for food preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there are two interesting books published in the fourteenth century ; one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, they have no connection with the indian curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead accounts of the types of food on the menus of the rich people of that time. By the arrival of the 1900s, recipe publications were in high demand, as a result of more people being able to read, people having increased spare time and having more money. |
