SC - Medieval Times

Nanna had it right, Aoife.  Or to borrow the standard cry of the list,
"Documentation, please?"  I *know* what the legend about the tarts is, but
we have no substantiation.  The recipe and the pastries are not prove-able
before the 19th Century.  It could be one of the charming little stories
that sprang up about almost everything in the Victorian era, when they
wanted to revive the chivalry and pageantry of the Middle Ages and
Renaissance.
