1 lb fresh mushrooms
1/2 onion, minced
4 tbsp butter
1 pinch thyme,salt,pepper
1 cup sour cream
2 tbsp brandy, sherry
1 lb egg noodles
2 oz dried mushrooms

Soak the dried mushrooms in a quart of hot water for several hours.
Drain, reserving the liquid. Wash mushrooms under running water, one
by one, and trim off the hard stems. Cut in wide strips. Strain the
liquid through cheesecloth, there should be about 2 cups. Simmer the
liquid until it is reduced by slightly more than half. Thickly slice
the fresh mushrooms. Saute the minced onion in butter until they are
transparent, then add the sliced fresh mushrooms and toss over high
heat until they have released their excess water and it is starting
to evaporate. Season with thyme, salt and pepper to taste. Add the
soaked mushroom strips and reduce the heat to medium-low. Gradually
whisk the mushroom liquid into the sour cream, and add this mixture
to the mushrooms. Simmer gently, stirring often, for 15 to 20 min.
Stir in the brandy and sherry. Boil the noodles in salted water
until they are just tender, but not yet soft. Serve with stroganoff
sauce, and a crisp salad.

The History of Recipes

Written recipes as an idea can be traced back into distant history, in fact as far back into recorded history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further. Interesting though that maybe, mostly, these early cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.

Later, we have a couple of cookery books which were published in the fourteenth century ; a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, these books are nothing to do with the indian curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead descriptions of the types of food eaten by the rich.

Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and spices from Arab countries, including spices like rosemary and coriander. These new herbs and spices caused an outbreak in recipe books, most of which are kept safe in private collections.

The introduction of the TV brought us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books.

Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like those on our site.
