[Sca-cooks] moretum - to rue or not to rue

[K C Francis]

I used the redaction posted from the feast:

I know I didn't use any of my rue and don't think I used anything in its 
place.   I also don't remember any warning at the feast about the dish 
containing rue.  I just remember that it was strongly flavored (potent is 
the word!)and truly yummy.  We didn't allow the uneaten portion to leave the 
table so we could munch on it later.
