<< 
 I think I have finally mastered trenchers - they have to be made with 
 whole meal flour and left to harden for four days before using >>

My lord and I are cooking for an event in the fall and would like to use
trenchers.  Could you please post or send the recipe?  Also, is there any
documentation for the recipe or is it something you've worked out based on
your knowledge and experience with period baking?
