The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to prove the history of recipes back into ancient history, at least as far as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, these, old recipes were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.
Closer to modern times, we have two interesting books published in the 1300s ; a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these books are nothing to do with the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but rather descriptions of the types of food prepared by the cooks of the rich people of that period. Later, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many foods and spices from Arab cooking, such as basil and coriander. The introduction of these new herbs and spices caused a surge in recipe publications, many of which still exist in academic collections. Like it or not, the introduction of TV brings us cooking programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes just like those on the site you are now reading. |
We hope you enjoy this Amish Bread W_Oatmeal recipe.
