Directions
+ Remember to remove the zest from the lemon before squeezing its
juice.
+ The temperature and consistency of the gelatin mixture is crucial to
achieving a fine foam that will not separate on chilling. To prevent
separation, beat only when the mixture is thick enough and mounds when
dropped from a spoon. If too thick, it will not form a fine foam. If
the gelatin mixture begins to set before beating, briefly place the
bowl over a bowl of hot water and stir constantly until gelatin
begins to soften. Set the bottom of the bowl directly in cold water
to stop the heating immediately.
+ The sauce mixture must be heated to at least 160 degrees to thicken
and prevent thinning out on setting. However, for a silky- smooth
sauce that does not curdle, the mixture must not be allowed to boil.

The History of Recipes
It is quite possible to trace the history of written cooking instructions back into ancient history, in truth as far back as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and possibly even further than that. In practice though, in the main part, these ancient cook books were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to academics are a few ancient tablets in Sumerian describing the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making drinkers feel blissful and exhilarated. Later on, in The time of the romans around 25BC a man called Apicius created a number of documents showing how to cook the recipes prepared by wealthy Romans. In his works, he recounts how the roman meals were split into starters, main course and desserts, a very modern way of dining. He also tells us how the cooks of Roman times were skilled in the use of a wide range of aromatic flavors, including many that are still in use today such as basil, fennel and parsley. For the decades that followed, the rich families of Wesstern Europe strove to lay on the most exotic banquets, and because of this cooks and their collection of recipes were at a premium. However, it was during the nineteenth century that fine cooking and cookery books became really popular. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, devoted much of their lives to assembling, trying out, and recording the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. By the time we get to the 20th century, cooking publications are starting to become popular due to higher levels of literacy, more spare time and having more disposable income. The arrival of television brings us celebrity TV chefs and the accompanying recipe books. And that pretty much brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, allowing everybody to access massive numbers of recipes just like those on sites such as this. |
