Benedictine or Benedictine spread is a spread made with cucumbers and cream cheese. Invented near the beginning of the 20th century,〔 it was originally and still is used for making cucumber sandwiches, but in recent years it has been used as a dip〔 or combined with meat in a sandwich.〔 This spread can be obtained pre-made from some Louisville area grocery stores. Although benedictine is rarely seen in restaurants outside the state of Kentucky, it has been written about in articles in national publications such as the ''New York Times'', ''Washington Post'', and ''Saveur Magazine'', and also reported about on multimedia outlets such as the Food Network and NPR. A benedictine-based sandwich was featured on the Food Network's ''50 States 50 Sandwiches'' program in 2012, on the television shows of celebrity chefs Paula Deen and Damaris Phillips, and in ''Southern Living'' magazine as one of June's "2011 Best Recipes" for their corresponding issue. ==History== Benedictine was invented near the beginning of the 20th century by Jennie Carter Benedict, a caterer, restaurateur and cookbook author in Louisville, Kentucky. Benedict opened a kitchen for providing catering services in 1893, and in 1900 opened a restaurant and tea room called Benedict's.〔 It was probably during her catering period when she invented and originally served benedictine. Benedict's cook books are still being sold a century after they were first published. For example, her ''The Blue Ribbon Cook Book'', which first published in 1902, has been reprinted numerous times and most recently in 2008. Although early editions of this book do not contain a recipe for the spread, the most recent edition does. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Benedictine (spread)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
