Mora asked:
<<< Is the stuffing of meat with fats and spices - larder - a
period cooking
method?
This is the only way I know to fix venison.
Make large slits in to meat across the grain and stuff with bacon fat or
sausage. >>>
Yes, it is. Of course I didn't know anything about it, in the
medieval or modern world, until it was discussed on this list.
See this file in the FOOD section of the Florilegium for some info on
it.
