The History of Recipes
Experts have traced the existance of recipes far back into antiquity, in fact as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. However, in the main part, these old cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we have a couple of interesting recipe books published in the 1300s - a book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these two books are nothing to do with the indian food that is served today, but rather recipes for the types of food prepared by the cooks of the nobility of the period. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many foods and spices from the holy land, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new culinary innovations created a surge in publications on food, the majority of which still exist in private libraries. Like it or not, the introduction of television brings us cooking programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this. |
