Phyllo Pies Recipe


Ingredients

1 each fruit, drained - i used
1 pineapple, cherries, and
1 strawberries
1 each phyllo dough
1 each pam or other spray oil
1 (regular oil in a pump spray
1 bottle would be cheaper and
1 equally effective)
1 each flour and sugar, 50-50
1 mixture, about 1/2c per cup
1 to cup and a half of fruit.


Directions

Any fruit would work fine, I think. Take the fruit and thaw if
frozen and drain. Mix the flour/sugar mixture into the fruit. The
flour thickens the remaining juices of the fruit so it hopefully
won't make the pastry soggy, and sugar for sweetness (this amount of
sugar is to MY taste, vary to adjust for desired flavor).

Take a few sheets of the phyllo dough and roll the rest back up. The
phyllo dries out very quickly. Fold each sheet of dough into fourths
(fold in half and then in half in the other direction), put a
spoonful of fruit in the middle of the dough, and fold the dough over
the fruit into a neat little package. Put the package onto a cookie
sheet sprayed with Pam. When the cookie sheet is full, spray the tops
of all the packages with Pam to keep it from burning.

Bake in a 325 F oven for about 20 min - until a light golden brown
color on top.

Source: A while back someone suggested putting a slice of pineapple
in a folded sheet of phyllo dough. I took their recipe and modified
it a little.

The History of Recipes

It is quite possible to trace the history of recipes back into history, at least as far into history as ancient Egypt, and possibly even further. Interesting though that is, generally, these old cookbooks were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.

Interestingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to academics are a few clay tablets in Sumerian which recount the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel wonderful.

During Roman times 25BC a roman called Apicius created a number of documents describing recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his scrolls, Apicius describes how the roman meals were split into appetizers, entrees and desserts, a style of dining still practiced today. He also describes how the cooks of his times used many different herbs, including a few that will be familiar to modern chefs like thyme, rue and parsley.

During the succeeding few centuries, the families of Europe competed with each other to serve the most extravagent banquests, and because of this chefs and their collection of recipes were much in demand. Nevertheless, it was during the 1800s that fine cooking and recipe collections became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, verifying, and publishing recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them.

By the time we get to the twentieth century, cookbooks were in high demand, as a result of higher levels of literacy, more spare time and having more disposable income.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV gave us cooking programs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books.

And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes like those on the site you are now reading.
