1 cup chile caribe
4 cup water
2 tsp salt
3 cloves garlic
2 tbsp ground mexican oregano
2 tbsp ground comino -- ( cumin )
5 lb pork loin chops -- thinly
1 sliced
Directions
Combine the Chile Caribe and water in a blender ans whirl intul
mixed into a sauce. It will become somewhat thick, similar to ketchup
in consistancy. Add salt, garlic, oregano and comino to the sauce and
mix well. Trim the excess fat from the pork and lay slices flat in a
large baking dish. Cover with the sauce; turn the meat once to coat
evenly on both sides. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator
overnight. You can either cook this in the oven covered with aluminum
foil at 325 degrees for 30 minutes then uncover and bake another 30
minutes or grill over a fire with mesquite CHUNKS ( chips just burn
up, chunks give a much better flavor ) that have been soaked for
several hours in water. I prefer the grilling method. I also add a
touch of oil to the marinade and baste my pork loin with it when
grilling. This makes great fajitas or just serve the meat as an
entree with rice and good beans.

The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to trace the history of recipes far back into distant history, in truth as far back into history as early Egypt, and potentially, even further back. However, these, ancient records were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts are some ancient tablets in Sumerian which describe the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel blissful and exhilarated. Moving on, we find two interesting recipe books which were published in the fourteenth century - a recipe book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these books have no connection with the curry that we all know today, but rather recipes for the types of food on the tables of the rich people of that time. During the following few centuries, the powerful and rich tried to serve up the most extravagent meals, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their recipes were highly sought after. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to collating, testing, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the advent of the 1900s, cookbooks are increasing in popularity mostly as a result of more people being able to read, people having increased spare time and disposable income. |
