Milopita ( Greek Apple Pastry ) Recipe


Ingredients

1 lb commercial filo sheets

FILLING

8 apples*
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp allspice
1 tbsp cornstarch
1/4 cup currants or raisins
1/2 cup walnuts
1/2 cup butter, melted

TOPPING

1 cup powdered sugar


Directions

*Note- Apples should be cored, peeled and chopped. If desired, 2 cups
canned apples (drained) may be substituted. Defrost frozen filo to
room temperature, 2 to 4 hours. Mix filling in a bowl tossing
ingredients with a spoon. Set aside.
Lay 5 sheets filo flat, one on top of each other, with a little
melted butter brushed between the sheets. Spread 1 cup of filling
along one end. Roll filo over the apple filling so you will have a
long filled tube. Fold side edges over 1/2" so filling won't fall
out. Continue rolling.
Place in a buttered baking pan or cookie sheet. Brush tops
generously with melted butter. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Sift
powdered sugar over tops and sides as soon as it is taken out of the
oven and while still hot. When cool, cut into 2" pieces and serve.


Servings: 8 servings

The History of Recipes

It is possible to trace the history of meal recipes way back into the distant past, certainly as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Having said that, these, old cook books were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.

Later, there are a couple of cookery books dating from the fourteenth century - a book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Don`t be fooled by the titles though, these books are not about the curry that is familiar to us all today, but rather recipes for the types of food eaten by the upper classes.

By the time we get to the 1900s, recipe books are highly popular mostly due to higher levels of literacy, more leisure time and a general increase in wealth.
