The History of Recipes
Food historians have traced the existance of recipes way back into the distant past, certainly as far back into history as early Egypt, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, generally, these ancient cookbooks were just very simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years there are a couple of recipe books which were published in the 1300s ; a recipe book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these are not about the curry that is served today, but instead accounts of the types of meals enjoyed by the rich and wealthy people of that time. In the fifteenth century, the Crusaders brought back a variety of foods and herbs from middle-east cuisine, including spices such as basil and coriander. The introduction of these new culinary ideas prompted an increase in manuscripts on cooking, the majority of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the internet revolution, allowing us all to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this web site. |
