The History of Recipes
Historians have proved the existance of recipes back into distant history, in truth as far into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, these, ancient cook books were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, there were two interesting books dating from the 14th Century - a book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books are unconnected to the indian food that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of food eaten by the rich and powerful of that time. Later on, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us many foods, spices and herbs from Arab cooking, including coriander, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations led to an eruption in recipe publications, most of which still exist in private cookery archives. The arrival of TV gave us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like those on this recipe site. |
