(from Valoise Armstrong's translation)
To make a dish of peas
Cook peas so that they become mushy, put them in a colander and strain as
for almond milk. Strain saffron, ginger and cinnamon with it. Then it looks
like a worm. Sprinkle sugar over it and serve it cold.
(from Hansen's unpublished translation)
To make a dish of peas
Seethe peas that they become mushy. Do in a strainer. Drive through like
almond milk. Drive through with it saffron, ginger, cinnamon, so it looks
like worms and strew sugar thereon and give it forth cold.
Sabina Welserin also has a whole roast lamb with butter 'hair', surrounded
by a butter 'fence'.
