6 cup defatted chicken stock
6 cup water
Directions
1. In a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, sear
chicken pieces in sherry by sauteing rapidly on both sides until
browned (about 10 minutes). Remove from pot and set aside.
2. Add green onions, tomatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes, and saute
for 5 minutes in cooking liquid left in stockpot. If pot becomes dry,
add a small amount of water.
3. Add peas, chives, basil, tarragon, and chile and cook 5 minutes.
Add stock, the water, and chicken pieces. Bring to a boil, then lower
heat to medium, cover pot, and cook for 45 minutes.
Note: For an even tastier soup, make this recipe the night before, let
cool, and then refrigerate overnight. The rich aroma and flavor of the
herbs will intensify.

The History of Recipes
Written cooking instructions as an idea can be tracked way back into history, certainly as far back as the early Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, mostly, these ancient cook books were just primitive pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
Continuing our culinary historical journey, there were two interesting books dating from the fourteenth century ; a book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these two books have no connection with the indian curry that we all know today, but rather recipes for the types of food on the menues of the rich and powerful of that time. When we get to the 20th century, cookery publications are in high demand, due to better eduction, people having increased leisure time and having more money to spend. |
