Cheesecake is thought to have originated in New York City around the 20th century. However, Ancient Greece has been making cheesecake way before any american tried it. Back then the Greeks created cheesecakes by combining, wheat flour, honey and cheese that had been pounded to a paste-like and smooth consistency. Although the original cheesecake came recipe from Greece ,it quickly adapted several culinary styles and variations during its journey to other territories. The basic ingredients, namely the cheese ,flour, and sweetener, are still present but the contemporary cheesecake shows little resemblance to the cheesecake of Ancient Greece. Cheesecake is one of the most popular desserts out there. Typically cheesecake is a sweet cheese based dessert, with a creamy filling in a pie shell or graham cracker crust. The filling commonly consist of egg, egg whites, sugar, cream, and a soft fat like cream, but ricotta cheese, cottage cheese can also be used. Cheesecake can be made plain but other ingredients can be included to add depth on flavor or appearance.
