Well, lentil dishes, of course; and the chickpeas/honey/onion dish that
I'm working on redacting from the Inquisition manuscripts; Egredouce
(brown the meat under the broiler), Hen in Broth, Rosemary Chicken, etc.
all work pretty well. With the chicken dishes, though, I'd try to be
around to skim off the schmaltz when the cooking first starts.
Frumenty of barley works well too. I'm going to be trying barley groats in
a crockpot-- probably tonight.
