Hi Genevia/ Ginger:
     I was hoping that you could post a question for me on the Cook's
List.  It is a lot of fun to read, but I just don't have the time
anymore.
    "Anyway, I am wondering if anyone knows of any references to
Arugula, aka Rocket in period recipes.  There is a word in the 1607
"Arte de Cozina" manuscript that I am trying to track down.  The Spansih
word is "eruga" which means "caterpillar".......in the original context,
this "eruga" is ground to make a bitter-sweet sauce.  Gulp.  One friend
suggested that it might be "aruga", which is "feverfew".  I am thinking
that it might be "aruga", which can mean either "caterpillar" or
"arugula".  Of the three, I think that bitter-sweet sauce made with
arugula might be the most palatable & the safest.  Any thoughts or
references to period cookbooks would be most welcome.
                    With thanks,    Antoine de Bayonne, mka Dan
Gillespie"
