The History of Recipes
Academics have found proof that recipes existed far back into distant history, in fact as far back into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further. In practice though, generally, these early cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
Closer to modern times, we find some books published in the 1300s - a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these are nothing to do with the indian curry that is served today, but instead recipes for the types of meals prepared by the chefs of the nobility of those days. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods and spices from Arab countries, such as coriander, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations prompted a surge in books on cookery, some of which are now in private collections. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on our site. |
We hope you enjoy this Caviar Pie recipe.
