Meat/egg/cheese pies, served cold.  In particular, Ember-day tart is good
and not too expensive; see also Pork doucetty, Spinach tart, herbelade; for
something really rich, try tarts out of Lent (all recipes in the
_Miscellany_).  Period sweets:  Digby current cakes ("To make an excellent
cake"), medieval gingerbread (not like modern), hais, hulwa, khushkananaj..
I had an article in (I think) last summer's TI with a bunch of the sweets
recipes and they are also in the _Miscellany_.  If you need more
information on this stuff let me know.

The _Miscellany_ is webbed at

I am posting the current cake recipe on the thread  "First try at redaction".
