Thanks.
But what I was looking for were period Ka'ak recipes. I can find
modern ones online.
So far I have three, all quite different from each other. One is
basically a ring of bread with a core of marzipan, and reasonably
good. One is a sort of square cracker, which would be all right
although a little boring if it didn't have lots of saffron in it, but
it does. One comes out as a rather oily pie crust cookie, not worth
eating, at least as I've done it so far.
