Directions
Take one regular sized can of applesauce and add enough cinnamon to
make a dough. Roll out and cut into shapes then bake in a VERY slow
oven say 150 to 250 until completely dry. Let them air dry over night
before using. If you are going to use for hanging ornaments punch a
hole in the top with a straw(drinking kind). This recipe used a lot
of cinnamon so drain the applesause first then add the spice. You can
use any spice, apple pie or pumpkin pie spice are nice too. So is a
little nutmeg added to the cinnamon.

The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to follow the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into antiquity, in fact as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and maybe even further. In practice though, generally, these ancient recipes were just simple pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a series of tablets in the Sumerian language describing the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made those who drank it feel wonderful and blissful. Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a number of scripts which described recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals were separated into appetizers, entrees and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. Aspicius describes how the early Romans were skilled in the use of many different spices and herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens such as thyme, fennel and dill. Later, in the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new spices and herbs from the holy lands, including rosemary and coriander. These new culinary innovations led to a surge in books on cookery, many of which still exist in private collections. For the decades that followed, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe tried to offer the most exotic banquets, and consequentially the best cooks and their recipe collections were highly sought after. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 1800s that cookery and recipe collections became really popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, verifying, and writing down recipes to help cooks of their time. When we get to the twentieth century, cookbooks are increasing in popularity mostly due to higher levels of literacy, more free time and disposable income. The TV revolution gave us celebrity chefs and the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on this web site. |
