Beer-Batter Onion Rings Recipe

Ingredients

1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tbsp oil
2 egg yolks
3/4 cup beer
2 large white onions sliced 1/4-in thick
1 oil for deep frying


Directions

MIX THE FLOUR, SALT, PEPPER, oil and yolks together. Gradually whisk
in the beer. Refrigerate the batter 3 1/2 hours to rest before using.
Slice onions, and dip them in the batter. Deep-fry in 375F oil until
golden brown. This batter also works well on other vegetables besides
onion rings--and it's great on fish, too.

The History of Recipes

Experts have traced the existance of recipes way back into ancient history, certainly as far into history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, these, early records were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for meal preparation.

Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered, according to academics are a few ancient tablets in Sumerian describing the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made drinkers feel blissful and exhilarated.

Closer to modern times, we have a couple of interesting recipe books which date from the 14th Century - a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these two books are nothing to do with the indian curry that is served today, but rather accounts of the types of food prepared by the chefs of the rich and powerful of that time.

In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many spices and herbs from the holy land, such as coriander, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes created an outbreak in books on cookery, the majority of which still exist in private cookery archives.

During the succeeding few centuries, the rich families of Europe competed with each other to lay on the most exotic banquets, and consequentially cooks and their recipes were at a premium. However, it was during the 1800s that fine cooking and cookery books really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, spent years to assembling, trying out, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy.

Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books.

And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes like those on sites such as the one you are reading now.
