I was thinking of playtesting the Icelandic chicken that was so thoroughly
discussed a few months ago, and a question occured to me.
Just WHICH sage would have been used in iceland? There are so MANY bloody
varieties. Would a clary sage be useful? (Thats the one that i have the
most access to, and I have a REAL low frustration factor when it comes to
exotic ingredients).
Btw, the only translation I have of the recipe is the one below. Are there
any further variations on it?

>>leaves and ground pepper and salt and wrap the chicken in it so it is

Thank you in advance,
