[Sca-cooks] Feast yesterday....

[Elaine Koogler]

Yesterday, a neighboring Barony of ours did a Burgundian event that was 
really cool...lots of good fellowship, music, dancing, etc.  However, 
the highlight of the day was the feast.  The person in charge was coming 
up from North Carolina, but couldn't make it because his wife was 
involved in a pretty serious auto accident...all are ok, though.  So the 
"sous-chef" took over...one Valhalric, formerly of the Midrealm...ring a 
bell, Alys Katherine?  It was an incredible feast...lots of really great 
food that included a wonderful chicken with a sauce Barbe Robert, served 
over rice, beef with a garlic sauce with pickled brussels sprouts, 
mushroom pasties, a dynamite sambocade with home-made whipped cream, 
rissoles with figs, raisins, etc. and pears with honey.  There were 
other things as well, but I don't have the menu or any of the recipes 
here.  Count Valhalric, with the assistance of a number of folk, did a 
really impressive job.
