[Vladimir Armbruster]

*chuckles* Thank you Stefan..  I really need to learn how to utilize that
wonderful...  list.. You have.

(I simply cannot say Florilegium without hearing 'Flagellum' in my brain,
and cosequently 'flogger', so to me.. its the list.)

Welcome to the SCA-Cooks list!

Perhaps this file in the FOOD-MEATS section of the Florilegium might be
of use to you:
meat-pies-msg (144K) 4/20/05 Period meat pies. Recipes.

and this one in the FOOD section has some more general info on period
pies and making pies.
pies-msg (57K) 7/26/02 Period pie crusts, meat and fruit pies.

Here are a few files in the FOOD-UTENSILS section:
aquamaniles-msg (12K) 5/25/02 Fancy period jugs to hold water for
washing.
forks-msg (25K) 3/26/05 Period forks. history and use in
Europe.
nefs-msg (24K) 3/21/05 Richly decorated medieval salt cellars.
p-tableware-msg (60K) 3/25/05 Period tableware. Period references
spoons-msg (17K) 12/17/01 Period spoons. References.
Construction.
utensils-msg (200K) 3/26/05 Utensils, plates, trenchers, cast iron
pots.

You mentioned possibly making your own tableware, so perhaps this file
in the CRAFTS section might be of interest. However, before using and
washing any horn utensils, I would highly recommend you read the file
on caring for horn utensils, lest you destroy what you put all that
effort into making.
