The History of Recipes
It is possible to read the history of meal recipes way back into the far past, certainly as far as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, these, early cookbooks were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Closer to modern times, we have two interesting recipe books from the 1300s - one book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these are nothing to do with the indian food that is served today, but rather descriptions of the types of meals enjoyed by the nobility of the time. By the arrival of the 1900s, cooking publications are increasing in popularity due to better eduction, increased leisure time and being a little richer. |
