Ingredients
1/2 cup soy sauce
3/4 cup vinegar
1 each whole head of garlic, peel and crus, h cloves
1 1-2 bay leaves
5 each peppercorns
2 tbsp brown sugar
3 lb of chicken wings
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix everything but the wings together.
Place wings in large pan, layering is okay, but make sure that the
pan is large enough to hold the wings and sauce. Pour sauce over the
wings, and bake until wings are done and golden brown. Stir
occasionally. Typically, Adobo is done with a whole chicken, and
simmered stove top and served with white rice. It's fairly flexible,
some folks will broil the chicken after simmering to crisp it up a
little, and reduce the sauce a bit. Others will add a cup or two of
water during the simmering process. Some add brown sugar for a little
sweetness, and/or cayenne to spice it up a bit. Adobo Chicken Wings

The History of Recipes
We can read the history of written recipes back into the far past, in truth as far as the Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, mostly, these early recipes were just very simple hieroglyphic instructions for preparing food.
In fact, the most ancient recipe in existence, according to experts in ancient history is a series of ancient tablets in the Sumerian language describing the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel blissful and exhilarated. Later on, we have two interesting cookery books from the fourteenth century ; a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these are nothing to do with the spicy food that is served today, but instead recipes for the types of meals cooked for the nobility of the time. For the next few years, the rich families of Wesstern Europe tried to lay on the best banquets, and as a consequence, the best chefs and their recipe collections increased in prestige. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 1800s the formal cooking and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, spent years to assembling, testing, and recording recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. By the advent of the twentieth century, cooking publications are increasing in popularity due to more people being able to read, people having increased leisure time and a general increase in wealth. The introduction of the TV brings us celebrity chefs and the spin-off recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everybody to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on this web site. |
