Pecan pie is a pie made primarily with corn syrup and pecan nuts.〔 Variations may include white or brown sugar, sugar syrup, molasses, maple syrup, or honey.〔 It is popularly served at holiday meals and is also considered a specialty of Southern U.S. cuisine. Most pecan pie recipes include salt and vanilla as flavorings. Chocolate and bourbon whiskey are other popular additions to the recipe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bourbon Pecan Pie - Recipes - Cooks.com )〕 Pecan pie is often served with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. ==Origin== Claims have been made of the dish existing in the early 1800s in Alabama, but this does not appear to be backed up by recipes or literature.〔 Attempts to trace the dish's origin have not found any recipes dated earlier than 1886,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Food Timeline: history notes-pie & pastry )〕 〔(Ladies' home journal, Volume 15 ) By Louisa Knapp, Edward William Bok〕 and well-known cookbooks such as ''Fannie Farmer'' and ''The Joy of Cooking'' did not include this dessert before 1940.〔 The earliest recorded recipes produce a boiled custard with pecans added, which is then baked in a pie crust.〔 Some have stated that the French invented pecan pie soon after settling in New Orleans, after being introduced to the pecan nut by Native Americans. Pecan pie may be a variant of chess pie, which is made with a similar butter-sugar-egg custard.〔(of Cooking: All About Pies & Tarts,Irma von Starkloff Rombauer, Marion Rombauer Becker, Ethan Becker; p93 )〕 The makers of Karo syrup significantly contributed to popularizing the dish〔 and many of the recipes for variants (caramel, cinnamon, Irish creme, peanut butter, etc.) of the classic pie. The company has claimed that the dish was a 1930s "discovery" of a "new use for corn syrup" by a corporate sales executive's wife.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History of Karo )〕 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「pecan pie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
