I am new to this list (one of the lurkers thus far) but wanted to let those who might be interested know that I've done several subtleties by period recipes and perhaps could give some timesaving tips.  Below are a few.

Helmeted Cock
Cockentrice
Hedgehog
Chiquart's Boars' Heads (one of my apprentices)
Joke Rice

I believe someone mentioned the fire breathing aspects.  I've done this with the helmeted cock and the boars' heads and can give you info on how to do it (and not) according to the period  receipts.

Dreaming of doing Chiquart's grand castle entremet,

Deborah of Arundel
