sca-cooks Comfortable head cooks

[Terry Nutter]

A quick introduction.  I'm Katerine Rountre (Terry Nutter).  I've been 
involved in medieval cookery and research on medieval cuisine for somewhere
between 10 and 15 years; most of my active SCA time was in Atlantia.

Well, no.  I've cooked comfortably for close to 300.  In my experience,
the primary key is organization, most of it (the organization, not
the cooking) done beforehand.  The secondary key is planning a meal
that does not exceed either the human or the kitchen resources.
