I figured it was like the bread crumbs in meatloaf. Maybe it's
meant to absorb some of the bacon fat.
Anybody remember the old Star Trek episode, "The Menagerie"?
The beautiful heroine turned out to be seriously scarred and
disfigured. The kindly aliens had restored her to perfect health after
her ship crashed, but they didn't know what a human was
supposed to look like. Sometimes medieval cooking feels like
that. We've got all the ingredients for Tredura, but we don't know
what it's supposed to look like.
