The History of Recipes
We are able to follow the history of written recipes way back into the distant past, certainly as far back into history as pharonic Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, generally, these early cookbooks were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
As we move on, there are a couple of recipe books which were published in the fourteenth century ; one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, they are not about the spicy food that we all know today, but instead recipes for the types of meals on the menus of the rich and wealthy people of that time. By the time we get to the 1900s, recipe books are highly popular as a result of increased literacy, people having increased free time and being a little richer. |
We hope you enjoy this Ajilimojili (Garlic & Pepper Sauce) recipe.
