The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to follow the history of recipes far back into the far past, at least as far back as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these old cookbooks were just basic pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
Later on, we find two recipe books which date from the 1300s - one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these have no connection with the spicy food that is served today, but instead recipes for the types of meals on the tables of the nobility of those days. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought back many spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new foods and tastes prompted an outbreak in cookery books, the majority of which are kept safe in private libraries. The introduction of the TV gave us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
We hope you enjoy this Microwave Strawberry Jam recipe.
