SC - porridge

[Philip & Susan Troy]

IV Forme of Cury 
3. To make grounden benes.  Take benes and dry hem in a nost or in an
ovene.  And hulle hem wele, and wyndewe out the hulkes, and waisshe hem
clene; & do hem to seeth in gode broth, & ete hem with bacoun.  (,
despite the name, probably whole beans ground only on the outside to
remove the skin)

The glossary notes  : despite the name, probably whole beans ground only
on the outside to remove the skin; served with bacon.  See also FENE
BOILES and MAKKE ( in which we are told to grind the 'groundon benes')


His Grace has a redaction on Makke in the Miscellany.


1000 Eggs, II, p. 30.  Peys de almayne.  'Take white peas & boil them &
then take them up & wash them clean in cold water, until that the hulls
go off;...'


Something I read recently directed you to rub the beans/peas with your
hands to get off the hull. Head stuffy...can't remember.
