The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be traced back into ancient history, in fact as far back into history as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, mostly, these ancient cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Continuing our culinary historical journey, we have some books which date from the fourteenth century : one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, they are nothing to do with the indian curry that is served today, but rather recipes for the types of meals on the menus of the rich and wealthy people of that time. Later on, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back a variety of spices and herbs from the holy land, including spices like parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices was responsible for a surge in recipe books, some of which are now in private collections. The TV revolution brings us TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on this site. |
We hope you enjoy this Barbecue Baked Sage Potatoes recipe.
