Max Miller of Tasting HIstory is doing a series on the meals of the RMS Carpathia during it's voyage from rescuing Titanic passengers to its docking in New York. In an attempt to recreate a recipe from the last day he found a peculiar dessert called "Hamilton Pudding". It's sort of an apricot tart with a buttery cake topping. It's peculiar because after tons of research he could only find one reference to it with a recipe and that was almost a footnote recipe in a newspaper clipping. It sounds delicious and something that would be nice to bring back. I'm definitely going to try my hand at this dessert too. #food #dessert #history #FoodHistory #TastingHistory

Hamilton Pudding — Tasting History

A not-too-sweet tart that tastes like a vanilla cookie with jam with a meringue topping

I am not one of those people that think there is one "right" way to make pizza. I can enjoy Chicago style except I wish the crust wasn't so buttery. Some of them aren't. The original one apparently wasn't, nor as deep. #history #food #FoodHistory #pizza
The True History of Deep Dish Pizza

I love shakshuka but it is obviously a post-15th century invention. Did the people living in North Africa and the Middle East have a similar dish before? Apparently yes! Ursulua has found a similar Medieval dish but made with eggplant. I'm going to try it. #food #cooking #history #FoodHistory

I subscribed to History Channel's YouTube channel because of their #foodhistory series but the signal to noise ratio is so poor. It is more filled with crap like this than even on TV. Garbage TV at best.

I'm going to have to try 17th century philosopher John Locke's pancake (somewhere between them and crepes though) recipe. Big question is if I beat it by hand for 15 minutes like it says or 1/3 that time with an electric mixer. #foodhistory #tastinghistory rarecooking.com/2021/12/14/joh…

John Locke’s recipe for Pancakes

A collection of philosopher John Locke’s papers at the Bodleian Library includes letters, accounts, poetry, notes on medicine and books, and recipes. When David Armitage posted this recipe fo…

Well if they had pumpkin spice pancakes recipes as far back as 1719 then I guess I could make some modern versions with similar spices without feeling too basic, right? 😀 #foodhistory #history youtu.be/nBbvqT4G_e8

TIL that there are different kinds of chickpeas *and* that there is a use for radish juice. Never thought of juicing radishes. Going to try to find the chickpeas but may take their word on the radish juice #foodhistory #history #cooking leobalecelad.wordpress.com/2021/10/20/sum…

Summer Chickpeas

White and red chickpeas, the latter being the most wholesome, are some of the healthiest vegetables you could find. To cook them take a ladleful of the red chickpeas and boil them with unsalted wat…

I’m going to have to give this a whirl. It’s like the Roman gladiator equivalent of Rumford’s Soup, which I have experimented with, but looks like it could be tastier #foodhistory #history
