[Sca-cooks] Medieval Jewish Banquet

[James Prescott]

(sent too quickly, to page 241 add that they also bought candles
and torches and flambeaux from the spicer; and also wheat grains,
ground rice, sweets, and hippocras)



We have examples from "The Goodman of Paris" (trans. Eileen Power)
of orders "From the spicer" which include

on page 241

"2 lbs of lump sugar, 16s."
"Rose-sugar, 1 lb., 2s."

followed by the text "Sum total of this spicery ..."

and on page 246 also from the spicer

"rose-sugar"
"Lump sugar 3 lbs."
