4 bulbs of garlic (clean off
1 paper &
1 stem)
1 cup lemon juice
1 tsp salt
3 to 4 c. puritan oil
Directions
Preparation : Put in blender (NOT a food processor) and blend until
smooth on medium. Add in an extremely slow stream, 3 to 4 cups of
Puritan oil. Blend constantly on about medium. It should become like
a thick white mayonnaise consistency. Store in refrigerator in a
glass container. Serve with meats, as a seasoning in salad dressings
or on pocket bread sandwiches. This is a tricky recipe. Sometimes it
"breaks". That is, it stays thin instead of the mayonnaise
consistency. The flavors remain the same. If it separates in storage,
just stir or blend again. (Sister-in-law of Jean Andrews)

The History of Recipes
Historians have tracked the existence of recipes way back into the distant past, in fact as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, these, ancient cookbooks were just primitive pictorial recipes for meal preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there are a couple of books which were published in the 14th Century - one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, they are not about the indian curry that is served today, but rather recipes for the types of food prepared by the cooks of the rich and powerful of that time. In the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many new foods and spices from the holy land, such as coriander, parsley, and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas was responsible for an increase in books on cooking, some of which are now in private collections. The introduction of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes just like those on this web site. |
