3rd Trimester Meal Project

        Meal Of Middle Ages
    Our next project for 3rd Trimester is that we are going to research and prepare a meal from the middle ages from 5th - 14th century. There is 5 members in my group. We decided to do 5 different thing, which are:

• Almond Pudding (14th - 16th century)
• Rissoles on a Meat Day (14th century)
• Frutuors (14th - 15th century) 
• Cabbage Pottage (13th century)
• Parsnip Pie (14th century)

Rissoles on a Meat Day:

-1 lb ground pork 

-4 eggs, hard boiled and chopped 

-1/2 lb cheese, grated 

-2 tbsp. powder fine 

-pinch of salt

The meat tasted like plain normal meat. The smell of cinnamon was really strong. It was really hard to make and it took me about three hours to make it.

Cabbage Pottage:

-1/4 teaspoon ground coriander 

-1 head of fresh cabbage 

-2 medium sized onions

-2 whole leeks 

-3 cups of vegetable broth

My teammate said it had a taste of cabbage with chicken broth, it had a mixed taste of the herb which is the coriander and onions. It also tasted a little bitter and a little salty. She also said that this was really simply to make.

Almond Pudding:

-1 cup of almond milk 

-1 1/2 tbsp. sugar

-1/4 cup of cram

-1/2 tbsp. rose water

-1/2 tbsp. unflavored gelatin 

This almond pudding tasted really sugary, icy, and also had a taste of almond milk mixed with eggs. My teammate also said that it was pretty difficult to make. When you look at the steps it looked easy, but when she tried to make it, it wasn't easy.
