1 banana, ripe
1/2 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tbsp grenadine syrup, optional ice cubes
Directions
"This delicious drink is great for kids who are lactose intolerant
because it tastes very creamy but does not contain milk. Although
optional, grenadine syrup (available in the soft drink section of
supermarkets) turns the shake a wonderful pink.
Peel banana and break into pieces. Place in blender or food
processor. Pour in pineapple juice, orange juice and grenadine syrup
(if using); blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Add ice cubes;
blend for 1 minutes or until creamy and frothy.

The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be found back into antiquity, at least as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, generally, these early recipes were just primitive hieroglyphic instructions for preparing meals.
As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there are some recipe books which were published in the fourteenth century - one book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these are not about the curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead recipes for the types of meals prepared by the cooks of the upper classes. In the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many foods and spices from Arab cuisine, including spices like coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new culinary innovations prompted a torrent in manuscripts on cooking, many of which are kept safe in private libraries. The introduction of television brought us TV cookery programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this web site. |
