The History of Recipes
We can track the history of meal recipes way back into history, at least as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and quite possibly further than that. However, generally, these ancient recipes were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Later, there were a couple of interesting books published in the fourteenth century : one book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, these books are nothing to do with the spicy food that is popular today, but rather descriptions of the types of meals served to the upper classes of that period. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods and spices from the East, including parsley, basil and rosemary. These new foods and spices created an outbreak in cookery books, many of which still exist in academic collections. The introduction of the TV brings us TV cookery programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes just like those on the site you are now reading. |
We hope you enjoy this Apricot Salad recipe.
