Hi,
I just got on the list. My name is Lady Jana Aoibeall, I am from CAID,
Calafia.(Southern California) I belong to the Household of the Blackened
Pot. We are a cooking household. Most of our members are not that
interested in period food as good food. I am the exception. I really want
to learn about period food.
Our motto is Prehendete et Fremete aut Esurite.(Grab, Make a rude noise or
hunger) I hope that is spelled correctly I am reading an old well used
banner. Loosely translated is means; Grab and Growl or go hungry. The
translation was done be a friend of the Household we is a linguist.
My question is to Norse cooking, around the time of the Vikings. I have
been asked to cook a winter feast for a Viking war band I belong to 'Drafn'
and would like to make it as period as possible. Last year we had roasted
chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy and peas. EEEEK.
I have some wonderful Swiss cook book, but other than eliminating recipe's
that have modern stuff in them I really do not know what is or is not
period. I really hope the lemon beer is, as it is yummy stuff.
A little more about just me. I am a wife, mother of two, my interest are
cooking, illumination, and costuming, I also dabble in brewing, needle work
and weaving. So many cool things to learn, so little time.
I have been in the SCA about 16years and am still having a wonderful time.
