Sounds a lot like the Pommedorry I made recently (from Curye on
Inglysch) except that was meatballs instead of meat pieces and it used
a coating of egg yolks and saffron. Some other similar period recipes
use an egg, flour and saffron mixture, though.

Upright? I guess that means short sticks or a tall oven. How do you
hold these upright? Do you stick them into something? Or is just a deep
pan and then are stuffed in tightly? But I'm not sure you want them
touching if they are coated.

Please post them to the list. They sound period or to have direct
period ancestors, even if we don't have much evidence to go by for
Ukrainian or Eastern European cooking.
