SC - mustard recipes

[Seton1355 at aol.com]

Hello Anne-Marie,
Here is the only mustard recipe I have.  I got it off the list years ago.  I 
hope it is ok to repost as I saved it....   And thanks to Lady Magdelina who 
posted it.

> Does anyone have the original of Sinapidum Rubeum (reddish mustard) from 
Platina's De honesta voluptate with a decent translation? I have a redaction 
I picked up at an A&S University, but the translation says to use white corn 
meal, and the redaction uses 2 c. of burgundy wine in place of "a little 
must". I'd like to see how well done the redaction is in the recipe i have.

I won't swear as to how good the translation is...

8.14  Red Mustard Sauce

Grind in mortar or mill, either separately or all together, mustard, raisins, 
dates, toasted bits of bread, and a little cinnamon.  When it is ground, soak 
with verjuice or vinegar and a bit of must, and pass through a sieve into 
serving dishes.  This heats less than the one above (8.13 Prepared Mustard/ 
Sinapidum) and stimulates thirst but does not nourish badly.




Enjoy,
Magdalena
