The History of Recipes
Food historians have traced the existence of recipes way back into ancient history, in fact as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. In practice though, generally, these early cook books were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we have a couple of books which were published in the 1300s - one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these are not about the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but instead descriptions of the types of food cooked for the upper classes. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and spices from Arab cuisine, such as coriander, parsley, and basil. These new culinary innovations prompted a torrent in publications on food, most of which are now in academic collections. The introduction of television brought us TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
