The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be found back into antiquity, in fact as far back into history as the Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, generally, these early records were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Continuing our culinary historical journey, there are some books from the fourteenth century : a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these are not about the curry that appears on menues today, but instead accounts of the types of food prepared for the rich and powerful of those days. Later on, in the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods, spices and herbs from the Middle-East, including basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices caused a torrent in publications on food, some of which are kept safe in private libraries. The TV revolution brought us TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
