Great event! That feast is probably the highlight of any that I have
attended in over 19 years in the SCA! Not only was the food period and
delicious, it was so entertaining! We had a great time speculating on the
dishes as they came out and marvelling at the work that went into the
feast. And I understand that it was a lot of work.
It probably was. Our local cooks guild tried the "skin removal" trick for
the farcd chickens as it was written (using a straw to inflate the skin off
the bird). It was difficult, and almost painful. I found it easier to use
a knife to remove the carcass from the bird and leave the skin whole. (Next
time I try it, I may use a bicycle pump with a basketball needle, instead.)
