The History of Recipes
It is actually possible to trace the history of written cooking instructions far back into the far past, at least as far as the Egyptians, and possibly even further. In practice though, these, early cook books were just basic hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
Moving on, we find two interesting books from the 1300s : a book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, they are unconnected to the curry that is familiar to us all today, but rather accounts of the types of meals on the menus of the nobility of those days. Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many foods, spices and herbs from Arab cooking, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes led to an eruption in manuscripts on cooking, many of which are now in private cookery archives. The revolution that is television gave us cooking programs and the spin-off recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes just like those on our web site. |
We hope you enjoy this Baked Omelet recipe.
