Amaretti Cookies Recipe

Ingredients

1 no ingredients


Directions

1 1/4 c blanched and lightly toasted
: almonds
3/4 c powdered sugar
2 ts all-purpose flour
2 lg egg whites
1/3 c granulated sugar
1 ts grated lemon zest
1 ts almond extract

In a food processor, grind the almonds to a powder by pulsing off and
on to keep the powder loose. Mix the almonds with the powdered sugar
and flour. In a separate a bowl, beat the egg whites to soft peaks.
Gradually beat in the granulated sugar until stiff. Fold in the lemon
zest and almond extract. Pipe the mixture with a pastry bag using a
round 1/4-inch tip into 1 1/2-inch rounds onto baking sheets lined
with lightly buttered waxed paper or parchment. Bake in a preheated
275-degree oven for 1 hour, checking to make sure the amaretti don't
brown. Turn off the oven and let the amaretti dry out for an
additional hour--they should be very crisp. Store them in an airtight
container in the refrigerator or freezer.

Yield: Approximately 24 cookies

The History of Recipes

Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be traced back into history, at least as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, mostly, these old cook books were just very basic hieroglyphic instructions for food preparation.

Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, there are some recipe books which date from the fourteenth century - one book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these two books are not about the indian food that we all know today, but rather recipes for the types of meals prepared by the cooks of the rich people of those days.

When we get to the 20th century, recipe publications are in great demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased spare time and having more money.
