The History of Recipes
It is possible to track the history of written recipes far back into history, in truth as far back as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, these, ancient cook books were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Later, we find two books which appeared in the 14th Century : a book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these two books are not about the spicy food that appears on menues today, but rather accounts of the types of meals on the menus of the upper classes of the period. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and herbs from Arab cooking, such as parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new herbs and spices created a torrent in cookery books, some of which still exist in private libraries. The arrival of television gave us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
