Directions
Blueberries freeze very well. Simply sort the fruit, don't wash, and
pack in freezer bags or boxes. When you use the frozen fruit, simply
wash in running water and use. Don't thaw. This is especially nice
when adding blueberries to fruit salad or muffins where you don't
want the rest of the product to turn purple. If you've already washed
the berries, let them dry before freezing. My favorite way to eat
blueberries is "straight up." For breakfast try the berries in rice
(brown, white, what ever) with a little cinnamon and/or clove.

The History of Recipes
We can trace the history of written recipes back into history, in fact as far into history as ancient Egypt, and maybe even further. In practice though, these, old recipes were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to academics are some ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which show the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times we have a couple of recipe books dating from the 14th Century : a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they are unconnected to the spicy food that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of meals enjoyed by the rich people of the period. Over the following few centuries, the rich families of the West competed to serve up the most exotic banquets, and because of this cooks and their collection of recipes were much in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the nineteenth century the formal cooking and cookery books became really popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collecting, verifying, and writing down recipes of the day. When we get to the 1900s, cooking publications were highly popular due to higher levels of literacy, people having more spare time and having more disposable income. The arrival of TV brings us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes such as those found on the site you are now reading. |
