The History of Recipes

It is quite feasible to trace the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into the far past, in fact as far back into history as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, generally, these ancient recipes were just very simple pictorial instructions for preparing food.

Closer to modern times, we have some books which date from the 14th Century ; a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these books are nothing to do with the curry that is familiar to us all today, but rather accounts of the types of meals enjoyed by the upper classes of the time.

Later, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back a variety of spices and herbs from Arab cooking, including parsley and basil. The introduction of these new culinary ideas caused an outbreak in manuscripts on cooking, many of which still exist in private libraries.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like those on our web site.
