The History of Recipes
We are able to trace the history of `recipes` back into ancient history, certainly as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, generally, these old records were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.
As we move on, we have a couple of interesting recipe books which date from the fourteenth century ; a recipe book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these have no connection with the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but rather descriptions of the types of food on the menues of the wealthy. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many spices and herbs from the holy lands, including rosemary and coriander. These new culinary innovations prompted an outbreak in publications on food, most of which still exist in private collections. The revolution that is television brings us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, allowing us all to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
We hope you enjoy this Beer Catfish recipe.
