[Sca-cooks] Pastry cases - baking blind?

[Jessica Tiffin]

hello, the list.

Help!  I think I may be hallucinating... Am I imagining it, or is there 
somewhere in the medieval corpus (I know not where, she says despairingly), 
a recipe for a tart of some sort which specifies filling the shell with 
flour before pre-baking it?  I seem to vaguely remember some such recipe, 
but can't find the damned thing in any of my books, and I'm starting to 
twitch at the sight of the word "coffin".  Does anyone remember anything of 
the sort?

frustrated,
JdH

We are modern people with egalitarian instincts deliberately creating a 
society that combines feel-good communalism with hierarchical, exclusionary 
elitism. It should not be surprising that it leads to the occasional 
cognitive dissonance. (Tangwystl verch Morgan Glasvryn, Silverwing's Laws 90).
