1 cup flour, unbleached white
1 cup skim milk, at room temp
1 tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
1/4 tsp salt, or to taste
1/2 tsp black pepper, coarsely ground or cracke
2 tsp lemon rind, freshly grated
3 each egg whites, lightly beaten
Directions
*Anne's note:I'd omit the salt to reduce the sodium
"These delicious popovers take advantage of lemon's strong affinity
with freshly ground black pepper. They rise best in baked in deep
molds in a very hot oven. One of the best ways to grate lemon peel is
to remove the zest in strips using a vegetable peeler, then grind it
to a powder in a spice mill."
Preheat oven to 450F. Sift the flour into a mixing bowl and gradually
whisk in the milk. Add the remaining ingredients, whisking just to
mix. The mixture should be the consistency of heavy cream. If
necessary, add more milk. Grease popover molds or muffin cups with
vegetable oil spray or a little olive oil. Fill each mold 1/2 full.
Bake for 15 minutes without opening the door. Reduce heat to 375F and
continue baking for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the popovers are
browned. Unmold and serve at once.

The History of Recipes
We can follow the history of meal recipes back into antiquity, at least as far into history as the Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. However, these, early records were just very simple pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
Later, there are some recipe books from the fourteenth century ; one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these two books are unconnected to the indian food that is familiar to us all today, but rather recipes for the types of food eaten by the upper classes of the time. By the time we get to the 20th century, cooking books were in great demand, due to more people being able to read, people having increased leisure time and having more money. |
We hope you enjoy this Lemon Pepper Popovers recipe.
