Broil until the cheddar is bubbly and serve right from the oven.

The History of Recipes
We can follow the history of written recipes far back into the distant past, at least as far back into recorded history as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these early cook books were just basic hieroglyphic instructions for preparing meals.
Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a roman called Apicius created a few documents describing recipes enjoyed by wealthy Romans. In his scrolls, he recounts how the meals were divided into hors d`oeuvres, entrees and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius tells us how the ancient Romans used a good variety of herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs for example basil, fennel and dill. For the decades that followed, the upper classes competed with each other to serve up the most exotic banquets, and as a result the best chefs and their recipes became highly prized. However, it wasn`t until the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe books really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collecting, verifying, and publishing the recipes of their peers. The arrival of television gave us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on the site you are now reading. |
