The History of Recipes

Historians have traced the existence of recipes back into history, certainly as far as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. However, in the main part, these early cook books were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.

Continuing our culinary historical journey, we have a couple of interesting cookery books from the fourteenth century : one book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these books are nothing to do with the indian food that appears on menues today, but rather recipes for the types of meals prepared by the cooks of the rich and wealthy people of that time.

Later on, in the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new foods, spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including spices like parsley, basil and rosemary. These new spices and herbs created a surge in recipe publications, some of which still exist in private collections.

The TV revolution brings us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes such as those found on sites such as this.
