The History of Recipes

Written recipes as an idea can be traced way back into history, in truth as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. In practice though, mostly, these early cook books were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.

Continuing our culinary historical journey, there were two books dating from the 14th Century : a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, they are not about the indian curry that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of meals prepared for the rich and powerful of that period.

Later on, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes was responsible for an increase in recipe books, the majority of which still exist in private cookery archives.

The TV revolution brings us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to access massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as this.
