SC - White Pepper in Period

[David Dendy]

Disclaimer/clarification -- the recipes entitled "Allowes de Mutton" and
"A-nother manere" do appear in my book "Take a Thousand Eggs or More", but
the recipe given here for rolled pork roast is by THL Gillian of Lynnhaven,
not by me.

Just FYI, neither oranges nor apricots are mention in Harleian Ms 279 or
Harleian Ms 4016.
