The History of Recipes
Experts have traced the existence of recipes back into the distant past, certainly as far back into history as early Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. However, sadly, these old recipes were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there are a couple of recipe books which appeared in the fourteenth century - a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, these are nothing to do with the spicy food that is familiar to us all today, but rather accounts of the types of meals served to the rich people of those days. In the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from the Middle-East, including spices like coriander, basil and rosemary. These new herbs and spices prompted an outbreak in cookery books, most of which still exist in private cookery archives. The introduction of television brought us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on this site. |
We hope you enjoy this Amaretto Cafi (Italian Coffee) recipe.
