SC - Jewish food in period

[Robert Newmyer]

The article you mention is in Issue 10 and is unusual for Early Period in
that it cites no sources. We stopped getting issues several years ago. The
newsletter changed hands and apparently is no longer in publication. I have
Issues 1 thru 32, if anyone is looking for past articles.

Subject: SC - Jewish food in period


>I know some of you got all excited reading that subject line. Let's be
>clear: I am not Jewish, and don't know a heck of a lot about Jewish cuisine
>or the laws pertaining to keeping kosher. That's why an article about
period
>Jewish Cuisine caught my eye. Apparently there are few (no) sources for
>recipes? I don't know if the publication is still being printed, but
>tracking down the article and getting referances is worth a shot:
>
>It's called "Early Period", and covers a variety of topics and places, all
>before 1066. The article in question was entitled Hebrew Cooking, took
place
>in the ASXXIII or so printing run. I am wondering what in the article was
>"good information"? No author was listed. Menu (with Recipes) included:
>Roast Lamb, Wheat and Lentil Soup, Greens and Green Beans (!) cooked in
oil,
>Chickpeas with Lemon, Cloth Bread, Crisp Unleavened Bread, Hard Boiled
Eggs,
>Olives, Dried and Fresh Fruit, Pistachios and Almonds, Honey, Fried Cakes
>with Honey, Tamarind Drink.
>
>The publication appears to come out quarterly, and is a quasi-scholarly
>newsletter for the early-period personas in the SCA (articles cover India,
>Russia, China, Japan, etc. as well as Europe). It purports to be published
>at the whim of the owners. There is a period shoe centerfold pattern in
each
>issue (at least the ones I looked at).

>i just got home with the information.  Can anyone tell me how to subscribe
>(how much) or know the gentles in question? Comments on the above menu,
anyone?
