I'll go more into details and recipe later but if people are curious here's Juliana's vigil food :
- Dried apricots
- Jordan almonds
- Candied fennel seeds
- marzipan (S. Welserin, including the idea of the gilded one)
- “peach pits” (same recipe than marzipan but using walnuts instead of almonds)
- Genovese tart (S. Welserin)
- a dish of peas (S. Welserin)
- mustards (pear: S. Welserin; simple: Rumpolt)
- marinated shredded roots (Rumpolt)
- pickled beets (Rumpolt)
- black forest ham
- smoked sausage
- cheese
- apples
Drinks:
- water
- blackcurrant syrup
- strawberry syrup
- ginger/lemon syrup
- apple juice
This was an incursion into German food and I got to learn new things. One of them is that gilding marzipan is insane :)

Date: 2008-11-24 08:42 pm (UTC)I wanted to make candied anise seeds but ran out of time (and admittedly I enjoy how colorful they are)
