The History of Recipes

It is possible to track the history of written recipes back into the far past, in truth as far back into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further. However, these, old recipes were just primitive pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.

Closer to modern times, there were a couple of interesting recipe books published in the fourteenth century ; a recipe book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, they are unconnected to the spicy food that is popular today, but rather descriptions of the types of food on the menues of the upper classes of that time.

By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookery books are in high demand, as a result of increased literacy, people having increased free time and being a little richer.
