What oatcakes? I didn't get any oakcakes! I didn't see any recipes true
for any of the items that were served. However, the venison pie and the
meat stew certainly were closer to period than many events I attend in
Ansteorra. The cherry tart and cucumber salad I don't know. Green beans,
ahh well. Roast beef was mainly eaten by the lower classes in the 15th
century England according to my research. But, look, what I really meant
to say was there was little that was blantantly not period. Too often I
am served barbeque with sauce and corn here. This feast stood out as at
least an attempt at not being blatantly non-period.
