Welcome to the Celtnet Breads, Cakes and Pastries Recipes Home Page

Welcome to Celtnet's Breads, Cakes and Pastries Recipes Home Page — Here you will find links to each and every Breads, Cakes and Pastries recipe listed on this site. As well as displaying recipes by name, country and region of origin I am now planning a whole series of pages where recipes can be located by meal type and main ingredient. Bread is a truly ancient food and, as long as you can grow grains containing gluten and you can keep a yeast culture alive then you can make bread. Indeed, breads were probably made almost as soon as humans began to grow wheat. Today we think of bread as the classic baked goods, indeed it's the need to bake bread that givs us the oven and it's the process of cooking at moderate haet in an oven that is defined as 'baking'. In all likelihood, however, what we think of as baking started much earlier in the stone age. After all, what you need for a griddle cake is a thick batter of flour and liquid which can be cooked on a hot surface. These could have been made with nut flours or acorn flour and cooked on hot stones. So, some form of griddle cakes probably represent humanity's first attempts at baking. Cakes can also be steamed (as they often are in Africa today) so you don't need an oven to cook every kind of cake (see this article on how to bake without an oven for more information).

Today, we have a huge range of baked goods, extending from many different kinds of breads and bread-like cakes to cakes and pies, tarts and pastries and not forgetting biscuits and cookies as well as pizzas, which are also baked goods. All the recipes for baked goods are brought together on this page (and the following pages). You can also use the links below to browse specific kinds of baked goods. The recipes on these pages come from many different countries across the globe and span many periods of human history, from the stone age to the modern day. (For a guide to preparing pastry read this article on preparing the perfect pastry.) You will find familiar recipes here, as well as recipes that you may never have encountered before...

Recipe Information:

Breakfast truly is the most important meal of the day and most of us ignore it.

Breakfast needn't be complicated, but it should involve a balance of grains and fruit. Here are some ides for simple and nutritious breakfast recipes anyone can make.

By gwydion | Published 2008-10-21 15:53:45 | 2008 Recipes and Cookery Articles |

Recipe Information:

Beef is a very flavoursome meat, as long as it is well matured, but it does have the cachet of being expensive and to be used only as a treat. Partly this is due to the history of beef as a high-status ingredient. Partly it's due to the cost of the better cuts. But you have a whole animal to consider and this article takes you through the history of beef eating and gives you a recipe for both the best and one of the poorer cuts of meat.

Classic Recipes from Scotland

By gwydion | Published 2008-05-29 21:42:59 | 2008 Recipes and Cookery Articles |

Recipe Information:

Scottish cookery swings from the essential spartan nature of Highland Cookery, where the most is made of scant ingredients, to the richness of the recipes of the East Coast ports and border towns. Despite its reputation as something of a joke (which is, at least partially, deserved) Scottish cookery is alive and vibrant and represents a fusion of good ingredients, old recipes and modern techniques. Here, recipes are provided for a traditional highland meal and this is contrasted with a traditional rich cake.
