The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be found far back into antiquity, certainly as far back into recorded history as the Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, in the main part, these ancient recipes were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, we find a couple of cookery books from the fourteenth century ; a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these have no connection with the curry that is served today, but instead accounts of the types of food prepared for the rich people of the time. Later on, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods, spices and herbs from the Middle-East, including spices like parsley and basil. The introduction of these new tastes caused an explosion in manuscripts on cooking, some of which are now in private libraries. The arrival of TV gave us TV cooks and the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like those on sites such as the one you are reading now. |
We hope you enjoy this Apple & Yam Casserole recipe.
