[Sca-cooks] pastry

[Terry Decker]

I've been able to document round trenchers to the early 12th Century and
extrapolate them into the 11th Century, but it's not easy to find sources.

I think people gravitate to the High Middle Ages, just because it's
difficult to document.  If it's not documented, maybe it's not an error.
