SC - sea kale and cabbage

[allilyn at juno.com]

Lorix, I think you have to do a web search of the garden sites to find
pictures of the stuff, but it is probably interchageable with any cabbage
recipe, especially if it is truely the prototype closest to the medieval
brassica.  There are cabbage recipes in every corpus (collection of a
country's period recipes) I know of, proving how ubiquitously it grew and
flourished.  There would be variants in taste, size and color of cabbages
from various geographic areas, but some sort of cabbage grew just about
everywhere.  Check the Florilegium for cabbage recipes, and the books
we've mentioned.  If you HAVE to have some recipe in a book you can't
find, ask for it--probably one of us can type it out for you.

Meanwhile, use celery leaves (a substitute for lovage, if you don't have
that, BTW) in chicken or hard-boiled egg sandwiches while reading the
cookbooks. ;-)
