The History of Recipes
We are able to trace the history of `recipes` far back into the far past, at least as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these old recipes were just basic pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
As we move on, we find a couple of interesting books which date from the fourteenth century - a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these books have no connection with the indian curry that is popular today, but instead recipes for the types of food enjoyed by the rich and powerful of the time. Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back many spices and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices like coriander, parsley, and rosemary. The introduction of these new herbs and spices caused an explosion in books on cookery, many of which are kept safe in private libraries. The revolution that is television gave us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes just like those on this site. |
We hope you enjoy this Chocolate Soup recipe.
