Conchobar,

>>. would it be possible to be able to show the evolution of a dish
through time,<<


This isn't as easy as you'd think.  I wanted to do this for a class, and
had trouble finding the same recipe repeatedly.  If it shows up a lot, it
tends to be in the generally same time period.  Sort of like the green
bean casserole we talked about last week or so.  When it's a 'hot' new
item, people circulate the directions.  Later, everybody knows, so it
doesn't seem to be so worthy of mention.  Or, they're happy with it and
it doesn't change materially, or just in one or two ingredients, as the
pears in syrup: sugar in the English version, honey in the French.  I
think the food changes more from cook to cook.  I've had these pears
several times, lately, and have served them, myself.  They are different
each time.

It's a good idea, if you can find what you want.


Regards,

Allison
