SC - [Fwd: Need help getting quince or murri]

[LYN M PARKINSON]

Stefan,

>>I can't remember whether this file in the FOOD-CONDIMENTS section of my
Florilegium has the recipe for "real" murri as well as the one for 
"fake" murri or not. But it might be another source to check: murri-msg  
      (32K)  1/ 5/01    Rotted barley paste condiment of Arabia.<<

I've got that, but if you check His Grace's comments in the Miscelleny,
you will see that he quotes Charles Perry as saying that real murri may
be highly carcinogenic.  

I don't want to rot barley in my kitchen any more than I want to scorch
bread and honey.  There must be some sort of modern item to use that
isn't horrible--these people like to eat well, too!  ['these people'
meaning modern Muslims and others who like Muslim cooking].  I'd like to
do some recipes from all these sources I've collected, and while there
are recipes that don't use murri, many of them do.

Regards,

Allison
