Ingredients
6 small sweet ripe bananas
1 tsp lemon juice
4 oz chocolate rice or sweet chocolate c, hips or chocol
Directions
Peel bananas and squirt a little lemon juice on them to prevent
turning brown. Slice the peeled bananas length-wise into half and
stuff the chocolate filling into them, like you would do to a hot
dog. Sprinkle some nuts if you like. Wrap the bananas individually in
aluminium foil paper until they are all tightly wrapped up. Bring to
campfire, throw INTO the embers (the red hot burnt charcoals) for 5
minutes. Open up the foil, the chocolate would have melted, the banas
soft & "baked" and the nuts add a crunchy texture. Enjoy!!
Servings: 6 servings

The History of Recipes
Recipes as an idea can be tracked back into the distant past, in truth as far back as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that is, generally, these old recipes were just very basic pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
Progressing into Roman times 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a number of documents which described recipes cooked by the Romans. In his scrolls, he tells us how the meals of wealthy Romans were split into appetizers, entrees and dessert, a style of dining still practiced today. Additionally, he informs us how the cooks of his times were skilled in the use of many spices and herbs, including a few you will know like bay, fennel and parsley. Over the succeeding few centuries, the powerful families of Wesstern Europe tried to offer the most extravagent banquests, and as a result cooks and their recipes were greatly in demand. However, it was during the 1800s that haute cuisine and recipe collections became popular. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, spent years to collating, testing, and writing down recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. The TV revolution brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
