[Sca-cooks] OT-Squirrelly Issues

Well, that is why I only gave one recipe using squirrel, but gave the  
file to find others. Another from my exotic-meats-msg file. This one  
is closer to a stew recipe:

Hi, Katerine here.  Stefan li Rous asks:
 >Are there any period recipe for squirrel? There are European  
squirrels,

The only one I'm aware of is that it is one of the alternatives for the
meat in Brewet Sarsyn (incorrectly rendered "Farsyn" in the Society of
Antiquaries edition, error reproduced in Warner) in B.L. MS Arundel 334.

It's a very nice brewet indeed, at least when made with chicken.
