The History of Recipes
Academics have traced the existance of recipes back into ancient history, in truth as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, generally, these ancient cookbooks were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we have a couple of interesting cookery books which were published in the fourteenth century - one book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these are nothing to do with the indian curry that appears on menues today, but rather accounts of the types of food on the menus of the rich and powerful of that time. By the arrival of the 20th century, cooking publications were increasing in popularity as a result of better eduction, people having increased spare time and having more money. |
We hope you enjoy this Low Fat Alfredo recipe.
