The History of Recipes
Food historians have tracked the existence of recipes far back into history, at least as far as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, in the main part, these ancient cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for preparing meals.
As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times we find a couple of interesting books from the fourteenth century ; a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these books are not about the curry that is popular today, but rather descriptions of the types of food prepared by the chefs of the upper classes of the period. In the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices like rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new tastes caused a torrent in manuscripts on cooking, many of which still exist in academic collections. The introduction of television gave us cooking programs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our site. |
