 I see little need to 'encourage' new cooks to substitute things or 
compromise 
 recipes when it is clearly a better path to teach them to provide suitable 
 menus from period sources using period ingredients. When folks attend one of 
 my feasts or Master Adamantius' feast or Master Huen's feasts, they do so 
 with the total knowledge that it will be a means to further experience the 
 Dream and carry home another memory of the period. SCA cooks do not need a 
 hundred ways to make feasts more modern, they need to be taught to utilize 
 the hundreds of ways to make a feast more authentic. :-)

Amen, Brother, but you are preaching to the choir.  A recent offering at a 
local A&S symposiium was a class on how to simplify eventing by using modern 
methods of camp cooking.  The really frustrating thing is that my Household 
is puzzled at my lack of desire to jump on the bandwagon.  I think I made my 
point when I told Lord Davor that he could simplify eventing by leaving his 
rattan and armor home and just take a gun.
