Tell All Website Bares Secrets

The Higgins Sisters new website, Home Cooking Central, encourages good cooks everywhere to share their favorite recipes, food stories and cooking secrets. Their mission is to help keep the art of home cooking alive.

Tulsa, OK (PRWEB) July 29, 2006 -- The world is full of secret recipes - for health, for beauty, for a great sex life, for relationships and for just about everything else. But, somehow, most secrets don’t stay that way for long. Peruse the book stores or the internet and you will soon see that people want to share their particular secret recipe for health, wealth and happiness. Others go out of their way to find out about your secrets and tell them to the rest of the world.

Did you know that Julia Child, famous French chef, once worked for the predecessor of the Central Intelligence Agency and, at their request, cooked up a shark repellant recipe to keep sharks from bumping into underwater explosive devices? Did you know that mincemeat, which we are used to thinking of as a combination of sweet fruits and spices was originally developed some 500 years ago as a way to preserve meat without salting or smoking? It used to be composed mostly of minced organ and muscle meats (usually mutton) combined with dates, raisins, prunes and a variety of spices. Did you know that there are numerous web pages that claim to reveal the “secret” recipes of famous restaurants like Kentucky Fried Chicken, McDonalds, The Olive Garden, Trader Vic’s and many more.

Good cooks are among those who tend to guard their secrets most closely. Although some say that good cooks never tell, a new website by the Higgins Sisters makes “telling all” about your favorite recipes a virtue. Worried about the art of home cooking disappearing in our fast paced world, they’ve created an opportunity for good cooks everywhere to show off their handiwork and achieve their moment of fame on the world wide web. While most food and cooking websites offer lots of free recipes and advice, Home Cooking Central (www.homecookingcentral.com)is set apart by inviting contributors to send not only recipes, but personal stories and pictures of themselves and their favorite dishes. Passionate about the importance of social bonds derived from good home cooked food and great dining experiences with family and friends, The Higgins Sisters Home Cooking Central encourages a “tell all” approach so that future generations of cooks will know the “secrets” of keeping the art of home cooking alive.
