What is a Period Cook-a-Long?

Period food is not scary. And to prove this, once a month, I will be posting a period recipe, with the redaction and a challenge. The challenge is to make the recipe, and comment with how you did. Did the redaction work? What did you think? Did you change the recipe for any reason? Did the change work? Would you serve this to your Canton/Shire/Barony?

April's Recipe

Since I spent most of the month getting ready for the Culinary Symposium here in An Tir - which was fabulous, by the way... I highly recommend going to one in your neck of the woods - I figured to use one of the recipes in one of my handouts. 

Let me know how it goes, and I will do the same!

Pomegranate Chicken:

Cut the meat up small and fry with oil and salt, and when it is brown, cook it until done with vinegar. Pound a handful of almonds or walnuts and throw them on and boil a while.  Take pomegranate juice and dissolve in it a lump of sugar to get rid of its tarness, and sprinkle with cinnamon.

Sounds good doesn't it?

Let's give it a try ...

Hopefully, I will be able to get my redaction and attempt done by the end of the month.

Good luck and happy eating!
