Bagna Cauda (Garlic Dip) Recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 lb butter (1 stick)
5 garlic cloves, chopped fine
6 anchovy fillets, chopped or mashed
1 dash pepper


Directions

Heat the oil and butter together in an earthenware pot over hot water
or in a double boiler. In another pan cook the garlic in a bit of the
oil until it is soft. Add the anchovy fillets, and cook until the
fish dissolves into a paste, about 5 minutes. Add all to the pan of
hot oil and butter. The Bagna Cauda is kept hot in the middle of the
table. Guests dip celery, cooked and cooled artichokes, endive,
cucumbers, green onions, and Italian bread into this mixture.

The History of Recipes

Food historians have traced the existence of recipes far back into the far past, at least as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, generally, these early records were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.

As we move into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a few documents which described recipes prepared by wealthy roman citizens. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and dessert, something that is very familiar to us today. Aspicius also describes how the cooks of Roman times used many aromatic flavors, including some that we all recognise like bay, mint and asafoetida.

In the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many new spices and herbs from Arab countries, including parsley and basil. These new spices and herbs created an explosion in publications on food, some of which are now in private libraries.

The arrival of TV brought us celebrity chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on sites such as this.
