Helena Sibylla asked about lunch ideas:
>>>
I've been toying with the idea of trying to provide a more period
selection
of foods for lunch taverns. Too often, the only the usual is
provided - hot
dog or bratwurst, cheese, soup, hard-boiled egg and so on - and I'd
like to
try offering things a little less obviously modern and more historic.
<<<
Well, there are period equivalents for each of those. See these
Florilegium files for instance:
sausages-msg (176K) 4/17/05 Period sausages. Making sausage.
cheese-lnks (15K) 10/ 1/04 Links to medieval and modern cheese
by Dame Aoife Finn of Ynos Mon.
cheese-msg (124K) 3/28/04 Medieval cheese. Recipes.
onion-soups-msg (36K) 4/29/06 Period onion soups.
soup-msg (106K) 12/16/04 Medieval soups. Cooking soups at
events.
recipes.
eggs-stuffed-msg (32K) 12/25/02 Period stuffed eggs dishes. Recipes.
>>>
I know that many of you have done dayboards in a period style, but have
actual lunch taverns ever been offered?
<<<
Here are some lunch and tavern meal examples from the FEASTS section:
dayboards-msg (34K) 2/19/05 SCA dayboards, middle-of-the-day
meals.
Daybrd-Advent-art (16K) 8/ 5/02 "Dayboard Adventures" by Jadwiga
Zajaczkowa.
(Some the dishes used in these dayboards might be easily
transportable to a lunch or even a tavern lunch)
finger-fd-fst-art (13K) 9/15/98 A light supper feast using finger
foods.
(Not billed as a lunch but sounds like some of the dishes might work)
hot-weth-fsts-msg (4K) 6/21/01 Ideas and menus for hot weather
feasts.
(Just in case it was a summer meal you had in mind)
picnic-feasts-msg (12K) 7/ 6/01 Ideas for light, picnic style
feasts.
Platina-Lunch-art (8K) 5/24/01 An Italian lunch using recipes
from Platina.
Tavern-Feast-art (14K) 1/13/99 An all-day tavern-style feast.
And this is in the FOOD section:
14C-Fingerfds-art (10K) 10/14/01 "English - 14th Century Fingerfoods"
by THL Kateryn de Develyn.
I hope these help give you some ideas.
