NOTES:
* Applesauce jello salad -- A delicious jello salad, taken from The
Monterey Coast Guard Officers' Wives Club Cookbook. My sister-in-law
was the president of the club which put that cookbook together.
* Substituting apple cider or apple juice for the water adds
tremendous taste. We prefer homemade chunky style applesauce to
processed commercial brands.

The History of Recipes
We are able to trace the history of written recipes back into distant history, at least as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, these, old cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to academics is a series of tablets in the Sumerian language which recount the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel wonderful and blissful. As we move on, there are a couple of interesting books published in the 14th Century ; a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these two books have no connection with the indian curry that is served today, but rather accounts of the types of food served to the rich and powerful. During the next few centuries, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe competed with each other to serve up the most extravagent banquests, and because of this cooks and their recipe collections were at a premium. Notwithstanding that, it was during the 19th century that cookery and recipe publications became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, verifying, and recording recipes to help cooks of their time. The revolution that is television brought us TV cookery programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on this web site. |
We hope you enjoy this Applesauce Salad recipe.
