[Sca-cooks] Jelly Donuts in 15th c. Germany

[Stefan li Rous]

Bear said (translated?):
<<< "Likewise, with the same dough, make apple (und?) turnovers or filled 
turnovers with roasted apples or pears or calves brains or mince meat made 
from small forest birds with spices and salt." >>>

I think of roasted apples or pears being still somewhat firm. But not "calves brains or mince meat from small forest birds". Are the first two sweet, while the second two are savory? Either way, that seems to be quite a wide range of possibilities.

Would "mince meat made from small forest birds" be boneless or include bones?

I think when asking for a donut, I'll have to start asking for "a **fruit** jelly donut. :-)

It's the SCA. Who knows what you will get if you aren't careful.
