Directions
Mix the cream cheese, rotel tomatoes w/chilies and green onions to
make a paste...you may need a little of the juice drained from the
rotel, so reserve it just in case.

about an hour before slicing. For Christmas, you can also tint the
mixture with food coloring.

The History of Recipes
It is possible to follow the history of `recipes` back into ancient history, certainly as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, mostly, these old cook books were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius created some scripts describing recipes cooked by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and dessert, a very modern way of dining. This early Roman chef tells us how the ancient cooks were skilled in the use of many herbs and spices, including many that are still in use today such as thyme, mint and dill. For the decades that followed, the upper-class families of Europe competed with each other to lay on the most exotic banquets, and consequentially cooks and their recipes could command a high salary. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe books rose to prominence. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the USA, spent years to collating, verifying, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the time we get to the 20th century, cooking publications were in high demand, mostly due to better eduction, people having more spare time and having more money to spend. |
