The History of Recipes
We are able to read the history of written recipes way back into antiquity, at least as far back into history as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. In practice though, generally, these ancient cookbooks were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
As we move on, there were some recipe books from the 14th Century - a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these are unconnected to the indian curry that we all know today, but instead recipes for the types of meals prepared by the cooks of the rich and wealthy people of the period. By the advent of the 20th century, cookery books were in great demand, due to better eduction, people having more leisure time and a general increase in wealth. |
