The History of Recipes
Food historians have traced the existence of recipes way back into the distant past, in fact as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and maybe even further. However, these, old cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there are a couple of books which appeared in the 1300s : a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these books are nothing to do with the indian curry that is popular today, but rather accounts of the types of food prepared by the chefs of the rich people of that period. In the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back many new foods and herbs from Arab cooking, including spices such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices created a surge in books on cooking, many of which are now in private cookery archives. The introduction of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everybody to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on this recipe site. |
