veganachronism veganachronism aquapatys posted in late medieval veganmofo 2009 with tags cinnamon cloves food garlic nutmeg pepper saffron vegan on october 24 2009 by hoveringdog yes i fail at vegan mofo but perhaps another recipe from the fourteenth century forme of cury will make up for my lapse this one is basically a fairly simple recipe for whole boiled garlic cloves sure you ll stink after this but i promise it ll be worth the stench the original reads aquapatys xx iii xv pill garlec and cast it in a pot with water and oile and seeþ it do þerto safroun salt and powdour fort and dresse it forth hool my method was to first brown the whole garlic cloves in a bit of olive oil add water and bring to a boil simmer until they re tender the powdour fort or strong powder bit requires a bit more imagination powder forte was a blend of spices that occurred in quite a few medieval and renaissance recipes but the exact composition is a little obscure samuel pegge the eighteenth century editor of forme of cury speculated that it was a mixture of the warmer spices pepper ginger c pulverized hence we have powder fort of gynger other of canel cinnamon it probably included also a few spices that are today a bit hard to find such as grains of paradise a relative of cardamom and cubeb pepper sometimes called java pepper for this incarnation i just blended up the warmer spices i had on hand cardamom nutmeg cinnamon cloves and loads of freshly ground black pepper i added salt and a pinch of ground saffron tossed the boiled and drained cloves in the mix until well coated and then ate them spread on slices of baguette the boiling really cuts the harshness of the garlic in case you re a bit wary of eating whole cloves and they become nicely creamy and spreadable good times 6 comments late night gruel posted in late medieval veganmofo 2009 with tags almond milk cinnamon cloves dates english food ginger mace pepper raisins saffron sugar vegan on october 12 2009 by hoveringdog looks disgusting i know but forget oil painting or the printing press this was the best thing ever to come out of the fifteenth century perfect for when you re laboring late on an autumnal evening over some tome of ancient lore taylours take almondes and grynde hem raw in a morter and temper hit with wyne and a litul water and drawe hit þorgh a streynour into a goode stiff mylke into a potte and caste thereto reysons of coraunce and grete reysons myced dates clowes maces pouder of peper canel saffron̄ a good quantite and salt and sette hem ouere the fire and lete al boyle togidre awhile and alay hit vp with floure of ryse or elles grated brede and cast there to sugur and salt and serue hit forth in maner of mortrewes and caste there on̄ pouder ginger in þe dissh harleian ms 4016 the simplified roughly translated version pour some almond milk in a small saucepan add powdered cloves mace pepper cinnamon salt a pinch of saffron throw in some raisins and chopped dates bring the whole thing to a simmer for a bit then stir in a little rice flour you don t need a lot i d start with a tablespoon maybe two let it thicken for a minute and then add more as needed it turns into a gummy gruel fairly quickly stir in some sugar sprinkle on some powdered ginger consume the end result is somewhere between hot cereal and a big steamy bowl of spiced cookie dough it s great in the morning as an alternative to oatmeal or cream of wheat or in the evening if your insomnia makes it difficult to tell your dawn from your dusk 6 comments it s a mofo monday posted in veganmofo 2009 on october 5 2009 by hoveringdog so today s my day of the week to update the vegan mofo headquarters with a round up of recent mofo posts that s my mofo duty for the day done so get your butts over there and check it out but if you bothered to visit my blog today i ll still throw you a bone or a mushroom here have a chanterelle leave a comment mofo day two and i m already behind posted in veganmofo 2009 on october 3 2009 by hoveringdog yeah it s way past midnight but consider this my friday mofo post today i bring you fractal food when i first saw romanesco i was fascinated by its striking appearance but figured it was just a gimmicky upscale cauliflower but romanesco really does have its own distinct flavor it doesn t have that taste i associate with normal vanilla grocery store cauliflower it s sweeter almost buttery plus it really is a damn fine thing to look at and it s quite possible the nerdiest vegetable there is i did a quick and dirty google search sorry not my usual standard of research i know for information on romanesco and mathematical patterns in nature and found tons of discussion online and most of it like this brief overview of non euclidean geometry by mathematics lecturer mircea pitici is way over my head at 2am on a saturday morning but pitici s overview talks about romanesco and crocheting plus uses the wonderfully lovecraftian phrase non euclidean which makes it quite the nerd hat trick in my book maybe someone can put it into small words that my sleep deprived brain can comprehend 10 comments midnight mofo is go posted in veganmofo 2009 on october 1 2009 by hoveringdog i guess it s appropriate that this mofo thing is kicking off at midnight since that s when i do a lot of my cooking i d like to think that i m a fairly enlightened bachelor i knit and do needlepoint i bake cupcakes i keep a fairly tidy apartment i shower at least once a day i very rarely wear the same underwear twice between washings i try to take care of myself but my one big nemesis is eating regularly if it weren t for the social aspects of the internet getting to share my food and photos with the world s netizens i probably wouldn t cook all that much preparing anything fancier than tofu and rice just doesn t seem worth it if you don t have the opportunity to share even if only virtually and i just forget to eat properly sometimes for a day or two at a time and when the hunger finally catches up to me it s usually late at night when i don t feel particularly inclined to cook anything ambitious much less drive to the 24 hour grocery it s times like those that having a decent store of various flours and other dried goods comes in handy the other night i found myself once again facing an empty stomach and an empty fridge and managed to throw together some hushpuppies if you re not familiar with hushpuppies and if you re reading from outside the us you re probably not they re basically little deep fried nuggets of cornmeal based batter traditionally they often contain eggs and dairy but as often turns out those can be left out without really affecting the final taste or consistency these i just made with cornmeal salt and pepper a bit of garlic powder for flavoring a little wheat flour to bind it all together and plain old water all deep fried in corn oil until golden brown i don t measure anything since it s pretty difficult to screw this one up oh and they re especially good with black panther hot sauce but what isn t 8 comments older entries about about veganachronism categories classical antiquity late
