What Makes Amish Food So Special?!
The Amish have fascinated the modern world for years. They live
a life completely foreign to the rest of us, and while we
wouldn't necessarily wish to live as they live, we can't help
but admire their faith and commitment.
The Amish trace their origins to 16th century Europe, more
specifically to the Protestant Reformation. This origianal group
of believers were called "Mennonites," after Menno Simons, one
of their leaders (a former Roman Catholic Priest). They believed
that their devotion to God should set them apart from the rest
of the world. Because they did, if fact, stand out, they were
often persecuted.
In 1693, a young Mennonite leader believed that the church was
losing some of it's purity and was beginning to make compromises
with the world. So, he and a group left the Mennonites and
formed a separate fellowship - the Amish. This movement began to
reach North America as early as 1727. Most of the Amish pioneers
settled in eastern Pennsylvania. Today, the Amish live in over
20 states and at least one Canadian province.
While the Amish have our respect in general, we most admire
their skillmanship. Whether it's building first class furniture,
piecing the most beautiful quilts you've ever seen or cooking
the most amazing food you've ever
tasted - we're always left
wondering, "What's their secret?" Simple. It's hard work and
commitment combined with fierce pride in what their hands
create.
You can taste the truth of this "secret" in every bite of Amish
Cooking.
When we hear the words "Amish
Recipes," we're instantly interested. And when we hear the
words "Amish food," we're instantly hungry! The Amish have
passed down, through the generations, a love and respect of
food. Food is at the heart of every gathering in Amish
communities and serves as a source of great interest and
amusement. Because it IS so central to their way of living, they
have perfected cooking techniques and know their way around a
kitchen better than most of the cooks we watch each night on the
Food Network.
From homemade breads and jams to puddings and chicken pot pies,
the Amish have a passion for cooking that every kitchen in the
world could benefit from.
