GODE COOKERY TRANSLATION: Tartlettes. Take veal boiled and grind it small. Take ground hard-boiled eggs, and do there-to with whole prunes, cored dates, pine nuts and currants, whole spices & powder, sugar & salt: and make a little pie shell and do this filling there-in. Cover it & bake it & serve it forth.

Combine first 9 ingredients in a large bowl. Add enough of the saved broth to thoroughly saturate the mixture and hold it together - it should be thick and slightly runny. Place this filling in the pie shell; add lid. Bake until the pastry is a golden brown. Serve forth! |
