[Sca-cooks] Rumpolt Hungarian Chicken

[Cat .]

Greetings Kiri-Hime

I should chat with you on the side too, once things
slow down a bit more (ok, wishful thinking.)

You asked: "I was looking at the redaction that 
Tirloch did of the Hungarian Chicken recipe...I think
it's the one from 
Rumpolt.  I could look it up, but am feeling lazy this
morning.  
His/your redaction calls for a combination of cider
vinegar and 
Riesling 
wine.  Is there a chance this was originally verjus? 
It sounds like a 
combo that would be used to sub for verjus if it
weren't available."

I pulled up the original and no, it very clearly
specifies Wine and vinegar:
 "geusz lauter Wein vnnd  ein wenig Essig darein"

pour clear wine and a little vinegar therin...

which is not to say he didnt steal it from a recipe
that used Verjuice, but in Rumpolt it states wine and
vinegar.

In Service
