Old Fashioned Applesauce Cake Recipe

Ingredients

2 1/2 cup cake flour, sifted
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cup applesauce
1/2 cup water
1 cup raisins
1 cup walnuts, chopped
1 confectioners' sugar


Directions

Sift the cake flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices
together into a bowl and set aside. Cream the shortening and brown
sugar together, in a large mixing bowl, until light and fluffy, using
an electric mixer set on medium speed. Add the eggs, one at a time,
beating well after each addition. Add the dry ingredients
alternately with the applesauce and the water, blending well with the
mixer set on low speed. Stir in the raisins and nuts. Pour the
batter into a greased 13 X 9 X 2-inch baking pan. Bake in a preheated
350 Degree F. oven for 45 minutes or until a cake tester or wooden
pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool, until cold to the
touch, in the pan on a wire rack. Dust the cake with Confectioners'
sugar.

The History of Recipes

Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be traced back into the distant past, certainly as far as the early Egyptians, and possibly even further. However, sadly, these early cook books were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.

Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, there are a couple of cookery books from the 1300s : a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books are not about the curry that is popular today, but rather descriptions of the types of food prepared by the cooks of the nobility of the time.

In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new spices and herbs from the holy land, such as coriander, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes led to an increase in manuscripts on cooking, many of which still exist in academic collections.

The arrival of TV brings us celebrity chefs and the accompanying recipe books.

Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes like those on our site.
