Three years ago I did the Stuffed Eggs recipe from Liber de Couina,
basically hardboiled eggs stuffed with cheese, spices, yolk and fried. They
were immensely popular and none of them survived to make it back to the
kitchen. Here's the recipe:

stuffed_eggsStuffed Eggs - Liber de Couina  (Medieval Kitchen #118)
Eggs: to prepare for stuffing. To make stuffed eggs, cut each one in half
when it has been well cooked and [is] thus hard. Then remove the yolk and
take marjoram, saffron, and cloves and mix with the yolks of those eggs; and
mash it thoroughly, adding a little cheese. For each eight eggs, add one raw
egg. This done, fill the egg whites with this mixture. And fry in good pork
fat, and eat with verjuice.

European cuisine, by dint of overemphasis, or at leastextremely typical at
SCA feasts:

<laff> Not in England it isn't! Haven't been to an SCA feast here for the
last 4.5 years that's had beef in it. And to be honest, if there was, I'm
not sure I'd eat it anyway (despite what the government says about how safe
it is).
