4 cup apples (green)
1 1/2 cup chilli
2 cup sugar
4 onions
1 tbsp salt
3/4 cup vinegar (white) or brown
Directions
Chop onions finely also chillies and apples. Add all other
ingredients. Cook until tender - simmer gently. To make a hotter
sauce leave seeds in chillies. Suggest using the hot chillies about
4cm long. I made some with hot mex chillies and left the seeds
in---WOW -- Doug likes it like that. I also halfed the sugar as he
thought it was too sweet. Also I put Chillie onion and apple through
food processor one ingredient at a time, it makes cooking faster and
you get a wetter end product. About 20 min. cooking.
Servings: 1 bottle

The History of Recipes
We can read the history of `recipes` far back into distant history, certainly as far into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, in the main part, these ancient records were just basic pictorial instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the oldest recipe found, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are some stone tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount 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 blissful. Later on, we find a couple of interesting recipe books which appeared in the 14th Century ; one book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these books are not about the indian food that we all know today, but instead descriptions of the types of food on the menues of the nobility of that period. For the next few years, the powerful and wealthy competed with each other to lay on the most extravagent meals, and as a result cooks and their recipe collections were highly sought after. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cookery and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collecting, trying out, and recording recipes of the day. By the advent of the twentieth century, cookbooks are in high demand, mostly as a result of increased literacy, people having more free time and being a little richer. The introduction of the TV gave us cooking programs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing us all to search through thousands of recipes such as those found on sites such as this. |
