Molded Mandarin Cranberry Relish Recipe

Ingredients

1 package unflavored gelatin
2 tbsp sugar salt
1 can 11 oz. mandarin oranges
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 can whole cranberry sauce, 16 oz
1/2 cup finely diced celery
1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans


Directions

1. In saucepan, mix together gelatine, sugar and salt. Drain mandarin
oranges; stir syrup into gelatine mixture. Place over low heat; stir
constantly until gelatine and sugar are dissolved, then remove from
heat. (I do this in the microwave.) 2. Add lemon juice, whole
cranberry sauce, diced celery, and chopped nuts.
3. Arrange oranges in mold; spoon in cranberry sauce. (A ring mold,
small Tupperware mold, or pretty crystal bowl, can be used.)
Refrigerate. Serve.
I have used this recipe since 1962, when it was given to me by a
fellow employee at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation. My
mother (80 years old in 1992) requests this every Thanksgiving. The
combined flavors are very tasty.

The History of Recipes

Food historians have proved the existence of recipes back into distant history, in truth as far back as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further. In practice though, mostly, these early records were just primitive hieroglyphic instructions for preparing meals.

Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to food historians are some clay 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 anyone who drank it feel wonderful.

Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some documents which described recipes cooked by the Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, entrees and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius also describes how the Roman cooks were skilled in the use of many herbs and spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example bay, rue and asafoetida.

In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new foods and spices from Arab countries, including spices such as coriander, parsley, and basil. The introduction of these new tastes led to a surge in books on cookery, most of which are now in private libraries.

Over the next few centuries, the wealthy families of Europe tried to offer the most extravagent meals, and as a consequence, chefs and their recipes could command a high salary. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe books became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the US, spent years to collating, verifying, and recording the recipes of their peers.

By the arrival of the twentieth century, recipe books were starting to become popular as a result of more people being able to read, more spare time and having more money to spend.

The introduction of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on our web site.
