Hi again.
I have been following an interest of mine and
perusing Stephan's files on preserving and
pickling. I have extracted some of the
recipes for future use.
One of the problems that I have noticed with
the cooking in our Barony is the lack of
sauces and accompaniments to food. Now at my
last feast I tried to remedy this and had
served a few sauces. I gather the reason for
the failure to serve sauces is more one of
time. People don't feel they have the time
to prepare sauces on the day. In my case, I
have a severe back injury and am physically
unable to now cook a feast in its entirety on
the same day. As a consequence, I have now
fallen back on recipes that I know that I can
prepare in advance and so pre-cook for over a
month or more freezing or preserving prior to
a feast.
Basically, I am looking for any period
recipes for preserves, sauces and relishes
that will keep or can be pre-prepared. If
you have pre-prepared could you give me an
idea of how long you kept them and how (ie
frozen, in fridge, a couple of days, a month
etc).
I have found some period recipes, but was
interested that (besides the green sauce) I
hadn't been able to find any other sort of
herb relishes. Is it just that I don't have
enough resources, or was it not common to
make vegetable/herb relishes?
Thanks for your consideration,
Lorix
