The History of Recipes
Food historians have tracked the existance of recipes back into distant history, certainly as far back into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, sadly, these ancient recipes were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we have a couple of recipe books published in the fourteenth century : a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books have no connection with the spicy food that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of food prepared for the upper classes of the period. By the arrival of the 20th century, recipe books were highly popular as a result of increased literacy, more leisure time and being a little richer. |
We hope you enjoy this Braised Steak & Green Pepper recipe.
