1 hot fruit (apples, cherries)
POUR INTO A CASSEROLE DISH
2 tbsp sugar
2 egg whites
4 tbsp boiling water
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking powder

Add ingredients in order, mixing as you go. Pour over fruit and bake

This is surprisingly good. Ginger is an unusual spice in apple
things, but it works nicely.

The History of Recipes
We can read the history of `recipes` far back into antiquity, certainly as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, these, ancient cook books were just simple hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.
Much later, in Roman times a man called Apicius compiled a few scripts detailing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his works, he describes how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, entrees and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. This early Roman chef recounts how the chefs of Roman times used a good variety of herbs, including many that are still in use today for example basil, rue and asafoetida. Over the succeeding few hundred years, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe competed to offer the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their recipe collections became highly prized. However, it was during the 1800s that formal cookery and recipe publications became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted their lives to collecting, verifying, and recording recipes common in their social group. The TV revolution brought us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of the internet, allowing everybody to access thousands of recipes such as those found on this web site. |
We hope you enjoy this Apple Casserole Cake recipe.
