Respected friends:
I have just run across this reference to a supposedly very modern-type mincemeat pie.
" In the 1588 Good Hous-Wiues Treasurie by Edward Allde, meats were still cut up to be eaten with a spoon and combined with fruits and heavy spices. Typical was his recipe for Minst Pye which used practically the same ingredients that go into a modern mince pie."
Does anyone know this recipe? Is it even close, or have things gotten lost in translation again?

Yours in service to both the Societies of which I am a member-
