Pesto With Spinach Recipe


Ingredients

2 cup tightly packed spinach,
1 washed and stemmed
2 tbsp broken pine nuts or
1 shelled walnuts
2 large cloves of garlic, peeled
1 salt
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup freshly grated
1 parmesan cheese
2 tbsp freshly grated
1 romano cheese


Directions

Place spinach, pine nuts, garlic, and 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. of salt,
if desired, in a food processor fitted with the steel blade or a
blender jar. Pulse several times to begin chopping and blending the
ingredients. Then turn on machine at high speed and pour in the olive
oil in a steady stream. Blend until the mixture is a smooth paste. If
you are using a blender you will have to stop and start the machine
occasionally to give the ingredients a stir. When the ingredients are
pureed, transfer to a bowl and stir in the cheeses. Blend thoroughly.

For parsley pesto, substitute 2 c. of parsley for the spinach.

The History of Recipes

It is possible to read the history of meal recipes back into ancient history, certainly as far back into history as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. However, mostly, these old cookbooks were just basic pictorial recipes for meal preparation.

Progressing into The time of the roman empire around 25BC a man called Apicius assembled a collection of scripts showing how to cook the recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. He tells us how the roman meals were divided into appetizers, main course and afters, a very modern way of dining. He also tells us how the Romans were skilled in the use of a good variety of spices, including many that are still in use today for example bay, fennel and parsley.

In the 15th century, the Crusaders brought back many new foods and spices from middle-east cuisine, including rosemary and coriander. These new culinary innovations created a torrent in cookery books, the majority of which are now in academic collections.

When we get to the 1900s, recipe books are starting to become popular as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having more spare time and disposable income.
