During this last week the authors of Haandkraft were all camped at Spøttrup castle in Salling, Denmark. We had a wonderful week, and got some time to try out a lot of stuff. One thing being cooking some medieval food. Of course there is no such thing as a truly authentic medieval dinner, but we made some food inspired by sources from the period. The course that got the best response were the pies, wich I will describe here. It won't be a specific recipe, as I don't have one. but I will give some pointers in what direction to go. Konzil von Konstanz (ÖNB 3044, fol. 48v), c. 1465-1475 To make pies you first need to make some dough. In this instance we made a so-called "Hot water-crust pastery"-dough, wich is mainly made from flour, water/milk and lard. 500 g wheat flour 2,5 dl water (or half water, half milk) 250 g lard The water/milk is brought to boil in at pot. When the lard is all molted the liquid is poured into the flour and mixed with a spoon. After this you should knead the dough until it is uniform and without lumps. Leave the dough to cool for a while. The cooler the dough the easier it will be to work with. Room temperature should be fine. We made two different types of filling. One with chicken and one with minced pork and beef. Chicken filling: Pluck the meat of one cooked chicken and roast it in butter, with some garlick, fresh ginger, thyme and cinamon. Season with salt, pepper, sugar and vinegar. Pork/beef filling: Roast some minced pork/beef in butter. Add chopped mushrooms, sage and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Shaping the pies: We shaped the pies using a small wooden bowl (ca. 15cm in diameter). First make a flat piece of dough about 5mm thick. Push it down into the bowl so that the edge go over the edge of the bowl, and place some filling in it. Then make a small disc to cover the filling, and cut the edges flush with the edge of the bowl. Fold down the edge, and make sure the folds stick in place. If you don't the pie will come open when you bake it. You could probably glue it with egg or water, to make sure it stays in place. Tip the pie out of the bowl, and poke a small hile in the top. After the pie has been baked you can pour different kinds of sauces into the hole or seal it with lard or butter. Bake the pies in the oven until thay are golden brown. In a normal oven that will be somewhere around 30 minutes at 200 degrees (celsius). We had a butter and honey sauce with these. Equal parts butter and honey melted togeather in a small pot and seasoned with a pinch of salt. Enjoy! (I know we did)

You may be wondering what people ate and how food was prepared in Renaissance England.

The title says it all. You can use any chicken seasoning, like McCormick Montreal Chicken Spice Grill Mates. I use a chicken barbecue spice rub that is local here. You can also replace the barbecue sauce with a grilling sauce like McCormick Mesquite Grilling Sauce Grill Mates. I just happen to prefer to use what I already have around. One more thing, it is probably best to finish the legs off in a smoker, but of course must of us only have a grill. You can always add wood chips to the grill and get the same effect. Either will do fine!

In Florida, the season for Renaissance Faires is in full swing. Trying to decide if we should go to the Tampa Bay Renaissance Faire this weekend made me think about my favorite Renaissance Faire food, garlic mushrooms. I actually haven't had them since we moved here, but they were a favorite of my whole family at both the Bristol Ren. Faire in Wisconsin and the Kansas City Ren. Faire. 2 Pounds of baby bella mushrooms ( whole or sliced) 1 Cup of vegetable or beef broth 3 Tablespoons minced garlic 3 Tablespoons of butter 1/2 teaspoon smoked salt dash of black pepper 1/2 of finely minced parsley Combine everything except the parsley in a large sauce pan. Cook over medium heat until the mushrooms are fully cooked, stirring often. Add parsley and cook an additional 5 minutes. Serve hot with crusty bread to soak up the broth.
