Hi all,
I'm currently planning a feast for Crown Tourney in December. The theme is
foods from the crusades. The basic idea, is these are countries the
crusaders may have traveled through on their way to battle.
What I am looking for in the way of comments - is it balanced? Is it
balanced in the way of color, textures, flavors? Is there enough there for
a lacto-ova vegetarian to eat (and get some protein also?) Does the feast
menu appeal to you?
Recipes - where period sources are known - the source is given. Where not
known - taken from my recipe diary book of recipes I have collected from
cooks at feasts where I've enjoyed the dish.
Personal Goal: to serve at least two period dishes per course.
First Course:
Breads
Fruits
Cheeses
Butters
Second Course: French
Roasted Chicken (sage sauce on side) - Goodman of Paris (personal variation
of the Cold Sage Chicken recipe)
Digne Carrots - carrots, honey, butter, currants, almonds
Mushroom Pastries - Le menagier Mushrooms in a pastry with sweet spices
(cinnamon, ginger, cloves, sugar)
Mon Amie - Honey custard
Third Course: Italian
Flesh of Veal - Platina (beef rolls with marjoram/parsley)
Armored Turnips - Platina (turnips baked in cheese)
Saracen (Heathen) Peas - Das Guter Speise (peas, honey, ginger,
cinnamon/nutmeg)
Pastry which they call Canisiones - Platina (almond stuffed pastry)
Fourth Course: Middle Eastern (thank you Cariadoc for your Miscellany on
the Web!)
labaniyyah - Ibn Al-Mabrad (meat-leeks-yogurt-rice-spices)
Cooked dish of Lentils - al-Andalusi (lentils, eggs, onions)
Zabarbada of Fresh Cheese - Andalusian (I need a good flat-bread recipe to
go with this! Or, would I be better off just buying?)
Hais - al-Baghdadi - date balls
Hulwa - Ibn al-Mabrad - sugared nut balls
Thanks for your help!
Question, I have had armored turnips before, but am not sure how
available/costly they will be for a december feast. Would it be okay to
substitute potatoes if the turnips turn out to be too scarce or too
expensive?
Has anyone else tasted the armored turnips before? Do you think that
substituting potatoes would make a very big taste/texture difference? Or,
would I be better off looking for a different recipe altogether? Like an
herbed cheese pie or something?
