SC - The siege cook challenge.

[Christi Redeker]

Actually, what impressed me is how they would know what was available in the season, in that era.  I already discussed this privately with Master Adamantius so I understand the background behind his choices.  But I am very impressed by anyone knowing what herbs would grow locally and what would be available for a garden in what season.

I bow to you all..

Well, I cannot dare declare a winner.... but I am impressed.

Next time, however, I'm gonna make judges out of Katerina and Adamantius,
and try to ensure that someone else actually attempts to make a meal!  (If
there is a next time, actually.)

A few thoughts along the way....

I'd love to see lots of potential lists from people, and why they chose what
they chose.  Please?  I think you'll be surprised at how much fun it is.

Katerine chose for her salat, wisely, a number of interesting greens.  I'd
urge each of you to do the same for your modern cookery, as well.  My wife
and I routinely place parsely in our modern salads (thanks to a suggestion
one time from Mistress Johanna Dudley) and we both think it makes salads
taste brighter.  This weekend I had a salad in a restaurant, that was summer
fruits and lettuce, all mixed (honeydew, strawberries, oranges plus garden
truck) with a little lemon on the top.  Just the thing after a day of
traffic jams and moving furniture in the heat.
