[Sca-cooks] Christmas in July...

[Terry Decker]

I've been trying to line up recipes between the original, the transcript and 
the translation.  The translation appears to be one to one with the original 
text, while the transcript has been edited eliminating a direct positional 
correlation between the recipes.  Matching these up is going to take a 
while.

The original gives "szerecsen-dio'-vira'got" ( ' denotes an accent mark over 
the preceding vowel).  The transcript shows this a "szerecsendio'-vira'got" 
and that is definitely "flower of nutmeg" or mace.

The "tree oil" in the translation appears as "faolaj" in the original and is 
translated as "olivaolaj" in the transcript and means olive oil.

Hello Gwyn

"nutmeg flower" is actually nigella seeds,----°
Are you sure?

Nutmeg flower in german is Muskatblüte and in English Mace (which is the
spice made from the reddish seed covering (aril) of the nutmeg seed).

Did you check out Gernot Karzers spice pages? There are the synonymes in
almost any  language you can imagine:

http://gernot-katzers-spice-pages.com/engl/Myri_fra.html
http://gernot-katzers-spice-pages.com/engl/Nige_sat.html


giving the hungarian name of mace in Hungarian   as  Szerecsendió virág
which is according to dicc nutmeg flower aka mace,...
while nigella is: Hungarian    Feketekömény, Parasztbors, Kerti katicavirág,
Borzaskata mag

  A few
other things:  I have since found the common name out here for "nutmeg
flower" is actually nigella seeds, and I'd guess "tree oil" is actually
olive oil.
