The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to prove the history of recipes far back into history, in truth as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these ancient cook books were just very basic hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we find two interesting cookery books which appeared in the 1300s ; a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these are unconnected to the indian curry that appears on menues today, but rather accounts of the types of meals cooked for the rich and powerful of the period. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices such as rosemary and coriander. The introduction of these new foods and spices caused an eruption in books on cooking, some of which still exist in private cookery archives. The introduction of television gave us celebrity chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to search through thousands of recipes like those on this recipe site. |
We hope you enjoy this Chef Freddy's Apple Rhubarb Pie recipe.
