Directions
Eating buckwheat may postpone your hunger pangs. According to USDA
study and other research, buckwheat will keep glucose levels in check
better than other carbohydrates.
Buckwheat gives you over 20% more fiber than oatmeal. The total
dietary fiber content of buckwheat is largely soluble fiber. This is
the type of fiber that many nutritionists and medical experts believe
to be significant in helping to lower cholesterol levels when
combined with a low fat diet.
Buckwheat is one of the best plant sources of protein. If you're
eating less meat, this can be especially important. Eggs are the
standard used to size up protein quality. Buckwheat as over 80% of
the protein quality of eggs--with none of the cholesterol or fat.
Plus, buckwheat is rich in lysine, one of the amino acids that is in
short supply in most grains.
Buckwheat is a fruit, not a grain. As such, it's wheat-free and
gluten-free. This is healthful news for those with celiac disease and
other less severe wheat allergies.

The History of Recipes
We are able to read the history of `recipes` back into ancient history, at least as far back into history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. However, mostly, these ancient cookbooks were just primitive pictorial recipes for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe found, according to experts are some ancient tablets in the Sumerian language which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. As we move on, we have some recipe books which date from the 1300s - a recipe book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, they are nothing to do with the spicy food that we all know today, but rather recipes for the types of meals prepared by the chefs of the upper classes of that period. During the next few centuries, the rich families of the West competed with each other to offer the most exotic meals, and as a result cooks and their recipes became highly prized. Even so, it was during the 1800s that cooking and recipe books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to assembling, testing, and writing down the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. Like it or not, the introduction of television gave us TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on sites such as this. |
