Clams With Spicy Butter Recipe


Ingredients

36 cherrystone clams
1/2 lb butter, room temperature
1/4 cup chopped shallots
1 tbsp chopped garlic
1/2 tsp tabasco pepper sauce
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp dijon mustard
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
2 tbsp chopped fresh basil leaves
1 salt to taste
1 pepper to taste


Directions

When renowned chef Pierre Franey visited Avery Island, he observed
some age-old local commercial enterprises ~ crawfish farming, oyster
shucking and boudin making ~ with great curiosity and enthusiasm.
Here he brings his incomparable touch to cherrystone clams, best
enjoyed with a loaf of crusty French bread and a carafe of wine. The
southermers defer to the Yankees on this one.


Servings: 6 servings

The History of Recipes

It is quite feasible to track the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into distant history, certainly as far back into recorded history as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, generally, these early cook books were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.

Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history are a few stone tablets in Sumerian which recount the making 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.

Moving on, there were a couple of recipe books which were published in the 14th Century - a book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another titled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these books are unconnected to the curry that appears on menues today, but instead accounts of the types of meals enjoyed by the rich and wealthy people of that period.

During the next few hundred years, the upper-class families of the West competed to serve the most extravagent banquests, and because of this cooks and their recipes increased in prestige. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that cooking and recipe publications became popular. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collecting, testing, and recording recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy.

By the advent of the 1900s, cookery publications were highly popular as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having more spare time and a general increase in wealth.
