The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as a concept can be observed back into distant history, certainly as far as early Egypt, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, sadly, these old recipes were just very simple hieroglyphic instructions for preparing meals.
Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, there are a couple of cookery books which were published in the 14th Century ; a recipe book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books have no connection with the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but rather accounts of the types of meals served to the rich and powerful of those days. Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of spices and herbs from the East, including coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes created an outbreak in recipe manuscripts, many of which still exist in private cookery archives. The revolution that is television gave us TV cooks and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on our web site. |
