The History of Recipes
Historians have traced the existance of recipes far back into the far past, in truth as far back into recorded history as the Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, these, early records were just primitive hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
Moving on, there are two interesting recipe books dating from the fourteenth century - one book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these books are not about the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but instead descriptions of the types of food eaten by the rich and powerful of the period. By the time we get to the twentieth century, cooking books were starting to become popular mostly due to more people being able to read, people having increased leisure time and having more money. |
