[Sca-cooks] Elizabethan era stillroom preserves

[Susanne Mayer]

Have been to one of the sites on thefind, they do have recipes there and 
state that all where taken from a n original Elisabethan cookbook, but not 
which one. Hadn't time to look at the recipes yet. Mostly for foodstuff to 
go with their preserves, etc. .

BTW does anyone have period jam, preserve, marmelad, jelly, or what ever you 
can call a mix of fruit and sugar-cooked?

I just made OOP strawberry/lime/sweet woodruff jam
