Kateryn,
Just as a note: some modern recipes for sauerbraten call for gingersnaps
in the marinade. A modern gingersnap would have a 'poor man's'
resemblance to a decent Lebkuchen cookie.
Thomas, where does the 'leb-' come from, in the word 'lebkuchen'? Maybe
that will help us define the difference between the cookie and Kateryn's
idea of a honey-spice mixture. Although, IIRC, most of the sources I
have that give any history of Lebkuchen refer to the Guilds--Nuremburg,
in particular--and they were definately cookies by the 16th C., which
includes Sabina Welser.
Regards,
Allison
