The History of Recipes
Written recipes as a concept can be tracked way back into the distant past, certainly as far back into recorded history as the Egyptians, and possibly even further. In practice though, these, early recipes were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there were some recipe books published in the 1300s ; one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these books are not about the spicy food that is familiar to us all today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals on the menues of the upper classes of that time. When we get to the 1900s, cookery publications were in great demand, as a result of more people being able to read, increased leisure time and having more money. |
We hope you enjoy this Cajun Creole recipe.
