The History of Recipes
Historians have proved the existance of recipes way back into antiquity, in fact as far as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further. Having said that, generally, these old cook books were just primitive hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there were two books dating from the 1300s - a book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they are unconnected to the curry that we all know today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals on the tables of the upper classes of the period. By the arrival of the 1900s, cookery publications are starting to become popular due to increased literacy, more free time and having more money to spend. |
