The History of Recipes
We are able to track the history of written recipes back into antiquity, in fact as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, sadly, these early recipes were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
As we move on, there are some interesting books dating from the 1300s ; one book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these two books have no connection with the indian curry that appears on menues today, but instead recipes for the types of meals prepared by the chefs of the nobility of that time. By the advent of the 20th century, cooking books were greatly in demand mostly due to more people being able to read, more spare time and having more money. |
We hope you enjoy this Cajun Country Supper recipe.
