The History of Recipes
Experts have proved the existence of recipes far back into distant history, in fact as far into history as the Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, sadly, these early records were just basic pictorial instructions for meal preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we find some books from the fourteenth century - one book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these are nothing to do with the indian food that is popular today, but rather accounts of the types of meals enjoyed by the upper classes of the time. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods, spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices like coriander, parsley, and basil. These new foods and spices caused a surge in recipe publications, many of which still exist in private libraries. The introduction of television gave us TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much 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 sites such as the one you are reading now. |
