Duke Sir Cariadoc,
You said in your last post that rolled oats were a modern invention.
Does that mean that, when redacting medieval recipies which contain
oats, we should use only whole oats? Or are cracked oats accurate? I
believe Elizabeth David's book discusses cracked wheat, and I've
always assumed that other grains were crushed similarly on the
miller's wheel. (I know that Ms. David's English Cookery is a modern
book, but I'm under the impression that it is a credible source on the
history of English bread making. Am I correct?)
