The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to follow the history of written cooking instructions far back into the far past, at least as far as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, mostly, these early cook books were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
Closer to modern times, we find two interesting books which appeared in the 14th Century : a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these books are not about the indian curry that we all know today, but instead descriptions of the types of food cooked for the rich and wealthy people of the period. By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookbooks were in high demand, mostly as a result of better eduction, people having more free time and having more disposable income. |
We hope you enjoy this Barbara Bush's Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe.
