    Historic, archived document Do not assume content reflects current scientific knowledge, policies, or practices. i Subject: "A Christmas Pudding." From Bureau of Home Economics, U. S. D. A. Bulletin avayii&tft©: "Aunt Sammy's Eadio Recipes." **# This morning, while I was thinking about roast turkey dinners, and what a lot of work it is to prepare holiday meal s, I was reminded of the big feasts which were served in the days of old, when knights and lords and ladies lived in merrie England, Do you know that they used to celebrate Christmas for two weeks, or more? The biggest feaSt of all came on Christmas day, when the feudal chieftain enter- tained all his friends. The boar's head was the main dish on the menu. All £ the "best people" served a boar's head at Christmas time. It was always carried to the banqueting hall on a gold or silver platter, by a special servant, amid the flourish of trumpets, and strains of minstrelsy. Next in importance to the boar's head was a peacock. The skin and feathers were first carefully removed, and the peacock was roasted. When it was done, the bird was sewed up again in all its gorgeous plumage, its beak was gilded, and itvasi/sent to the table. Only noble hands could serve this splendid dish. It was brought into the dining hall by the most distinguished and beautiful. • lady guest. She was followed by the rest of the ladies, and they entered the hall to the sounds of music. The dish was placed before the master of the house, or his most honored guest, who, no doubt, was'/ skillful with the carving knife, as he was with, the lance,' in joust or tournament.

  • Mincemeat Pie with Meat
    MINCEMEAT PIE WITH MEAT Rather than write out a specific mincemeat recipe, I decided to make a comparison of how the proportions of ingredients changed over time. Now you can make your own! Some of them did specify quantity of spices; I’ve left that out due to space issues. N.B.: Beeton and Galt have both mincemeat with and w/o meat recipes (I’m only looking at w/ meat here). The other question to ask is, “how big is your pie?” It seems the English like to make mince pies individual-size (for example, in Harry Potter Ron confesses to eating 3 or 4). Beeton seems to be making smaller ones like that. The others don’t seem to specify, although once you tried to make 20 pies from the JOC recipe you’d know which size, I’m guessing smallish. Other questions that occur to me are “how much does a tongue weigh?” and “are calves feet really fatty?” I will add that I have made the E.F. version before and tried to short the suet, since it seems like a lot of fat. Don’t. It needs it to hold together. Except for getting sweeter and adding more apples (although that’s difficult to judge since they all use different measurements,) it looks like the proportions and spicing stay fairly consistent. That’s really quite remarkable.

  • Sheep Based Cuisine Synthesis Report First Draft
    CULTURE AND NATURE: THE EUROPEAN HERITAGE OF SHEEP FARMING AND PASTORAL LIFE RESEARCH THEME: SHEEP BASED CUISINE SYNTHESIS REPORT FIRST DRAFT By Zsolt Sári HUNGARIAN OPEN AIR MUSEUM January 2012 INTRODUCTION The history of sheep consume and sheep based cuisine in Europe. While hunger is a biologic drive, food and eating serve not only the purpose to meet physiological needs but they are more: a characteristic pillar of our culture. Food and nutrition have been broadly determined by environment and economy. At the same time they are bound to the culture and the psychological characteristics of particular ethnic groups. The idea of cuisine of every human society is largely ethnically charged and quite often this is one more sign of diversity between communities, ethnic groups and people. In ancient times sheep and shepherds were inextricably tied to the mythology and legends of the time. According to ancient Greek mythology Amaltheia was the she-goat nurse of the god Zeus who nourished him with her milk in a cave on Mount Ida in Crete. When the god reached maturity he created his thunder-shield (aigis) from her hide and the ‘horn of plenty’ (keras amaltheias or cornucopia) from her horn. Sheep breeding played an important role in ancient Greek economy as Homer and Hesiod testify in their writings. Indeed, during the Homeric age, meat was a staple food: lambs, goats, calves, giblets were charcoal grilled. In several Rhapsodies of Homer’s Odyssey, referring to events that took place circa 1180 BC, there is mention of roasting lamb on the spit. Homer called Ancient Thrace „the mother of sheep”.

During the holiday season of 1843, those friends were causing Cole much anxiety. In Victorian England, it was considered impolite not to Tree Lighting Party answer mail. He had to figure out a way to respond to all of these people. December 1 Cole hit on an ingenious idea. He approached an artist friend, J.C.

  • 31 Mincemeat As the War Pie
    #31 Mincemeat as the War Pie Antique mincemeat tart pans NONE SUCH still on the shelf at Kinsley Food Pride Every year my mother (Eloise Tillotson LaRue) made mincemeat tarts for Christmas. I never developed a taste for mincemeat myself, but my mother had this English tradition handed down in her family. In fact, I inherited the set of little tin tart pans pictured above which she got from her grandmother (Rosina Kirk Straw). Mom thought she had brought them to northern Michigan from England in 1879, and they may have originally belonged to her great grandmother (Eleanor Dawson Straw). Forgive my need to honor these women by name, but the tart tins are one of my favorite things, even though I bake cherry or strawberry tarts in them. Traditionally, mincemeat is a mix of chopped dried fruit, brandy, spices, beef suet and beef. The directions for one 19th century recipe goes as follows: Stone and cut the raisins once or twice across, but do not chop them; wash dry and pick the currants free from stalks and grit, and mince the beef and suet, taking care the latter is chopped very fine; slice the citron and candied lemon and orange peel, strain the juice and when all the ingredients are thus prepared, mix them well together, adding the brandy when the other things are well blended; press the whole into a jar, carefully exclude the air, and the mincemeat will be ready for use in a fortnight (two weeks). It’s easy to see that homemade mincemeat is quite a bit of work.

Families decorate their homes and there is usually a Christmas tree in the living room. People send lots of Christmas cards to their family and friends. It is normal for some families to send 50 or 60 cards at Christmas! The day before Christmas Day, 24th December, is called Christmas Eve. British families shop, cook and wrap presents on this day. The presents go under the Christmas tree, and children hang stockings on the fireplace, or next to their beds. The stockings are for Father Christmas to fill with presents! There is a special church service at midnight on Christmas Eve.

  • Traditional Mince Pies Tchen Prep: 45 Mins • Cook: 20 Mins • Serves: 12
    K dney Traditional mince pies K tchen Prep: 45 mins • Cook: 20 mins • Serves: 12 Using apple and less dried fruit makes this is a great festive treat that is low potassium, low phosphate and low salt. Ingredients Homemade mincemeat: 1 tablespoon brandy or rum 1 large Bramley apple Pastry 25g low fat margarine 225g plain flour 50g glace cherries 150g butter 50g dark soft brown sugar 2 tablespoon caster sugar 1 teaspoon mixed spice 1 egg 100g mixed fruit peel 3 tablespoons cold water Carbohydrate The pastry along with the sugar and fruit from the mincemeat are the main sources of carbohydrate. Carbohydrate values have been provided for those trained in insulin adjustment. Phosphate/ potassium As apples are a low potassium fruit, they are used to form the base of this mincemeat alternative, making these lower in potassium than traditional mince pies. There is very little phosphate in each mince pie and they are therefore a suitable snack if you are following a low phosphate diet. Protein Each mince pie is low in protein. Special diets Gluten free: Use gluten free flour. Vegan: Use a dairy free margarine. Buy a ready rolled vegan pastry or omit the egg from the pastry and brush with a plant based milk alternative. Healthier option For a healthier option leave the pastry tops off the mince pies, or alternatively use filo pastry for a lower fat alternative. You may wish to consider omitting the sugar from the pastry to reduce the sugar content. Special occasion Cheaper option You don’t need to use the brandy or rum, but a cheaper option is to buy a miniature bottle to avoid needing to buy a larger bottle.
