The History of Recipes
Food historians have tracked the existence of recipes way back into history, in truth as far as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, these, old recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there were two interesting cookery books dating from the fourteenth century ; one book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these two books are not about the curry that is popular today, but instead accounts of the types of food enjoyed by the nobility of those days. By the arrival of the twentieth century, cookery publications were increasing in popularity due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased leisure time and being a little richer. |
