The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as a concept can be traced way back into history, at least as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these old cook books were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Later on, we have two books which appeared in the 1300s - one book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these are not about the indian food that we all know today, but instead recipes for the types of meals prepared by the cooks of the rich and wealthy people of the period. Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new foods and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices such as coriander, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas prompted an increase in recipe publications, the majority of which are kept safe in private collections. The introduction of the TV brings us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
