The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be tracked far back into the far past, in fact as far into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further. Having said that, these, old cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
Continuing our culinary historical journey, we find some books published in the 1300s : a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these are unconnected to the curry that is familiar to us all today, but rather recipes for the types of meals on the tables of the rich and powerful. Later on, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods and spices from middle-east cuisine, including spices such as parsley, basil and rosemary. These new culinary innovations prompted an eruption in manuscripts on cooking, many of which are now in private libraries. The TV revolution gave us TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
We hope you enjoy this Bananas Flambe recipe.
