I have served the recipe from Le Menagier, a wine, egg and flour wafer to 100
feasters a few years ago. I used a Pizelle iron, think Italian lacy wedding
cookies, probably 4-5 inches in diameter. Yum. I froze them in layers and
they came out nice. They were served with the "Snowe" recipe in Forme of Cury
I believe. I've posted the recipes a number of times, so I don't want to
waste bandwidth. They are I believe in the Florilegium. Let me know if they
can't be found.
