Hello the List!
We had a discussion about payn ragoun Maggie Black-style a while back (maybe
18 months ago?), and came to the conclusion that breadcrumbs were a mistake.
Maggie Black said that the 'thriddendele' was a mystery ingredient and she
recommended using breadcrumbs to substitute (where the *&%$ did she get that
one from??), while only a teaspoon of pine nuts.
My conclusion when testing the recipe was that it actually reads 'a third of
that quantity' in pine nuts (dele = part) - therefore, much more like a pine
nut brittle. Apart from the fact that I used sugar, having no honey at the
time, the recipe was easy and successful (but don't use sugar - it does
funny things to the texture). Just follow the proportions given in the
original.
I imagine that the 'payn' notion comes in because it's a little loaf that
you slice, if you haven't used sugar, whereupon it falls apart.
