The History of Recipes
It is possible to trace the history of `recipes` back into distant history, in truth as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe even further. Having said that, these, ancient cook books were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
Later, we have a couple of interesting cookery books published in the 1300s ; a recipe book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these two books are nothing to do with the indian food that is popular today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals on the tables of the rich. By the time we get to the 1900s, recipe books were increasing in popularity as a result of higher levels of literacy, increased leisure time and disposable income. |
We hope you enjoy this Martini From Joe Robertson recipe.
