[Sca-cooks] RE: Verjuice grape question?

[Jeff Gedney]

>Well, it may be that the grapes are a New World variety, but they fulfill some other characteristics, being small, green, and most important, free, I thought I'd ask. My shire has an event coming up in November that I am cooking dayboard for, and I would like to use verjuice in one of the chicken recipes. I am thinking of freezing some of the grapes and using the juice fresh as well.
>

In my opinion, just go ahead and use them...

Just state in you handout that you are using New world 
grapes and why. (If you dont have a menu handout, put it 
down in your ingredient lists)

Upon the hempen tackle ship-boys climbing;
Hear the shrill whistle which doth order give
To sounds confused; behold the threaden sails,
Borne with the invisible and creeping wind,
Draw the huge bottoms through the furrow'd sea,
Breasting the lofty surge: O, do but think
You stand upon the ravage and behold
A city on the inconstant billows dancing;
For so appears this fleet majestical,
Holding due course to Harfleur.
