5 garlic cloves
1 egg, at room temperature
1 cup olive oil, at room temp.
1 tbsp lemon juice
Directions
Crush the garlic in a food blender. Add the egg, and blend for 15
seconds. Very slowly add the oil through the top of the blender so
that an emulsion can take place. Stir in the lemon juice by hand.
Hint: To get the smell of garlic off your hands, simply rub your
hands in used coffee grinds. End of odor. In Italy, it is common to
eat a whole coffee bean after a big meal so that your lover will not
be bothered by garlic.
Servings: 1 cups

The History of Recipes
We are able to read the history of `recipes` back into distant history, at least as far as the Egyptians, and maybe even further. Having said that, sadly, these ancient cook books were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe found, according to academics are a few clay tablets in Sumerian which describe the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making anyone who tried it feel wonderful. Moving on, we find a couple of books which date from the 14th Century - a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, these are not about the spicy food that is popular today, but rather descriptions of the types of meals on the menues of the rich and wealthy people of that period. During the following few centuries, the powerful and wealthy houses strove to lay on the most exotic meals, and as a result the best cooks and their recipes were at a premium. However, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe collections became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, devoted much of their lives to collating, trying out, and writing down recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. By the advent of the 1900s, cook books are starting to become popular mostly due to increased literacy, people having more leisure time and having more disposable income. |
