"It didn't call for using flour or butter, like regular food recipes, but it was formatted like one. "The recipe for making gold is an urban myth that has been going around for centuries", explained historian Neil Narrows. He is not sure what he will do if the recipe is a real recipe for making gold.

Joe Young plans run his experiment with the gold recipe live via webcam. Then I looked at the bottom and it said 'get rich' as the last step.

"People have asked me about it occasionally, but there is no proof that such a recipe exists. "I can't divulge the specifics of the case, but it had to deal with gold. "This really could put a rift in the urban legend world", said Young. This recipe appears to be one that could be used to make a gold-like substance. I think it's just a story people used to explain how they came across a large sum of money.
