Schwarzwaelder Schinken - Smoked pork in the middle, behind toothpicks, Bratwurst (Bottom left) and Zervalet (Top Right)  with Sweet and Spicy Mustard

How was food preserved in the middle ages?

It might be surprising to learn that many of the methods that are used today were also used to preserve food in the middle ages.

The most common methods are salting, sugaring/honeying, pickling/fermenting, smoking, and drying.  Each of these preservation methods inhibits the growth of microbes, bacteria, or fungi that would make you ill.

Today's recipe features two of my favorite methods of preserving food, salt curing, and smoking.

How does salt curing preserve food?

Salt curing dehydrates the food so that moisture-loving pathogens cannot thrive on it.  There are two different kinds of ways to salt cure food.  This is oftentimes the first step to additional methods of curing.

  • Dry curing: Food is immersed in a mixture of salt and flavorings.
  • Wet Curing:  Food is soaked in a salty solution.  This is also known as brining.

What is "pink salt"?

Curing salt, also known as pink salt is a combination of table salt and sodium nitrite, or, sodium nitrate.  It may also be known as Prague powder #1, and Prague Powder #2.  These are dyed pink so they are not confused with regular table salt.  They are highly concentrated and should be used correctly.  In addition to slowing the growth of pathogens, it is believed that pink salt inhibits botulism.

  • Prague Powder #1 - 93.75% table salt & 6.25% sodium nitrite - Best used with wet curing, short-term curing times, and with food that will be cooked.
  • Prague Powder #2 - 89.75% table salt, 6.25% sodium nitrite & 4% sodium nitrate - Must be used with food that is dry cured for a long period of time.

What about saltpetre?

Also known as saltpeter or nitrate of potash, potassium nitrate was a common ingredient in food preservation.  The use of saltpetre has declined because of inconsistent results. It is an ingredient of gun powder and has been in use since the 15th Century.

How does smoking preserve meat?

Meat that has been exposed to wood smoke develops an acidic coating that inhibits the growth of bacteria. As with curing, there are two different ways to smoke meat.

  • Hot Smoking - involves temperatures in excess of 150 degrees and cooking the food in addition to smoking it.  This process should be used when longer periods of smoking are required.
  • Cold Smoking - involved temperatures lower than 100 degrees and is used when you want to flavor the food and create a smoke barrier without cooking it.

Interpreted Recipe

To make smoked pork.

Take a quarter of a pig and salt it especially well, so that it is entirely white with salt, and let the salt dissolve in a cellar. And when it is dissolved, then skim off the water and pour it over again, do that two or three times a day, and when it has laid in salt for four weeks, hang it up and smoke it fairly slowly, until it becomes thoroughly dry and fairly hard. Let it hang in the smoke for eight days, after which hang it in a chamber into which air comes. It keeps for the entire year.

Ingredients

2 1/2 pounds pork ( I prefer loin)

4 ounces kosher salt

2 ounces sugar

1/2  tsp. pink salt #1

2 tablespoons black peppercorns

2 tablespoons juniper berries

10 whole bay leaves

2 teaspoons coriander seeds

2 teaspoons dried marjoram

1-quart water

Instructions

  1. Place your black peppercorns, juniper berries, and coriander seeds into a small pan, you want to warm them enough to release their fragrance.  Remove the spices from the pan and coarsely grind them in a mortar.
  2. Put your pork into a ziplock bag and add the coarsely ground spices, crumbled-up bay leaves, dried marjoram, sugar, and salt.  Slowly pour in water being sure to cover the pork completely.  Note: The pork needs to brine for a minimum of 4 hours and a maximum of five to seven days.
  3. Soak wood chips for a minimum of three hours the day you are going to smoke your pork. I use a mixture of apple and cherry.
  4. Remove the pork from the brine, rinse off the salt solution, pat the pork dry and place it into a tray for your smoker.  Note:  You can lightly oil the pork if you wish.
  5. Smoke the pork for a minimum of 2 to 2 1/2 hours at 225 degrees, or until the internal temperature reads 150 degrees. Remove from smoker and allow to cool before cutting into thin slices.

Thoughts

This is a very forgiving recipe with great returns.  The pork was moist and smokey and very flavorful after marinating in the brine overnight.  Note: I did not use the pink salt for this because the time I was planning on marinating it in the brine was so short.  It was enjoyed by many of the guests. It also kept well and I enjoyed the leftovers for several days afterward.  This marinade would also do well with chicken if you choose. If you do not have a smoker, simply cook the pork in the oven.  Highly recommended for camping events as well as dayboards.

(German) Rote Ruben - Pickled Beets

 First Published on Patreon Oct 4, 2022


Ein New Kochbuch, Marx  Rumpolt, 1581

Pickling is a form of fermentation that includes placing food into an acid, for example, sour wine (vinegar) or beer to preserve it. The use of vinegar is ancient, it is mentioned numerous times in the bible, and traces of vinegar were found in Egyptian urns (3000 B.C.).  When mixed with water, it was known as posca or poor man's wine in ancient Rome.

How does vinegar preserve food?

Vinegar contains acetic acid, which is known to have antibacterial and antifungal properties which inhibit the growth of microorganisms that would spoil food.

What kinds of acids are found in wine?

Wine has tartaric, malic, and citric acids.

Tartaric acid lowers the PH level of food to a level that bacteria cannot live. It also acts as a firming agent and adds a tart flavor to wine and food.

Both malic and citric acids inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungi, mold, and yeast while helping food retain its color, flavor, and texture.

Original Recipe

3. Rote Ruben eyngemacht mit klein geschnittenen Merrettich/ Aniß/

Coriander/ vnd ein wenig Kuͤmel/ sonderlich wenn die Ruben geschnitten/

gesotten mit halb Wein vnd halb Essig.

Interpretation

3. Red turnips made with chopped horseradish/ anise/

coriander/ and a little cumin/ especially when the beets are cut/

boiled with half wine and half vinegar.


Ingredients

3 whole fresh baby beets

1/2 C red wine

1 C vinegar

1 piece horseradish root 1" long x 1" wide, slivered

1 t anise seed

2 t coriander seed

1/2 t caraway seed


Instructions

1. You can use canned beats if you want, but, fresh beets will give you a better flavor and texture.  Roast your beets in a 400-degree oven for about 45 minutes to an hour.

2. Allow to cool and remove the skin.  Chop your beets into bite-sized pieces and place them into pint-sized canning jars that are extremely clean!  Add slivered horseradish.

3. Bring wine, vinegar, and spices to a boil. Pour into your jars, leaving a half inch of headspace before sealing the lids. Allow the beets, spices, and horseradish to cool to room temperature before storing.

Note: The beets store well in the refrigerator. If I were planning on long-term storage, I would finish with a hot water bath, but I am unsure if it would be necessary.  I have one jar left of these beets from the event in the fridge and it is still good after several months.

Note: These should marinate for several days before being served.  I prefer at least a week to marry the flavors.  I have noticed that the flavors are not as pungent now as they were a week after being made.  They've mellowed in a very pleasant way the longer they have sat.

Thoughts

I love pickled beets and I would have no difficulty bringing them to a weekend event along with the pickled onions if I were planning on not having a cooler.  These are spicy, tart,  and delicious.  If you don't care for horseradish, don't use it, but do add the spices.

Of assorted sugar comfits

 Originally published on Patreon Oct 5, 2022


Thomas Dawson lists comfets (comfits) as one of the "necessaries appertaining to a banquet". Comfits were often served at the end of the feast to freshen the breath, act as a digestive, as decoration, and sometimes used in the treatment of specific illnesses.

Aromatic seeds such as anise, fennel, or caraway were coated with sugar and colored using beet, spinach, or saffron. They can also be made using almonds or ginger. Comfits can still be purchased today, for example, Jordan almonds or pastilles. They are a bit time-consuming to make but oh so much tastier than the ones you purchase!

The easier comfits to make are the ones with seeds such as caraway, fennel, or anise. Making cinnamon comfits is a bit of a process. To start I will walk you through the process of candying seeds such as anise, caraway, coriander, fennel, or other seeds or nuts.

Many of the cookbooks that were published in the 1700s and after suggest coating the seeds with a solution of gum arabic. To create your solution use 1 tsp. of gum arabic, to 3 tsp. rosewater. I let mine sit overnight and it becomes a thick, honey-colored gel. If you are going to use gum arabic to coat your seeds, the first few coats (charges) will need to use this solution. Then you can move on to your sugar.

Also coats one assorted grains (do they really mean wheat, rye, etc? or are they talking about kernels as in individual anise seeds?) with sugar/ and assorted spices/ so it becomes good and also welltasting.

Original Recipe How to cover all kinds of Seeds, or little pieces of Spices, or Orange or Limon Pill, with Sugar for Comfits. First of all you must have a deep bottomed Basin of Brass or Latin, with two ears of Iron to hang it with two Cords over some hot Coals. You must also have a broad Pan to put Ashes in, and hot Coals upon them. You must have a Brass Ladle to let run the Sugar upon the Seeds. You must have a Slice of Brass to scrape away the Sugar from the sides of the hanging Basin if need be. Having all these things in readiness, do as followeth; Take fine white Sugar beaten, and let your Seeds and Spice be dry, then dry them again in your hanging Basin: Take to every two pounds of Sugar one quarter of a pound of Spices or Seeds, or such like.  If it be Aniseeds, two pounds of Sugar to half a pound of Aniseeds, will be enough. Melt your Sugar in this manner, put in three Pounds of Sugar into the Basin, and one Pint of Water, stir it well till it be wet, then melt it very well and boil it very softly until it will stream from the Ladle like Turpentine, and not drop, then let it seeth no more, but keep it upon warm Embers, that it may run from the Ladle upon the seeds.  Move the Seeds in the hanging Basin so fast as you can or may, and with one hand, cast on half a Ladle full at a time of the hot Sugar, and rub the Seeds with your other hand a pretty while, for that will make them take the Sugar the better, and dry them well after every Coat. Do thus at every Coat, not only in moving the Basin, but also with stirring of the Comfits with the one hand, and drying the same: in every hour you may make three pounds of Comfits; as the Comfits do increase in bigness, so you may take more Sugar in your Ladle to cast on: But for plain Comfits, let your Sugar be of a light decoction last, and of a high decoction first, and not too hot.  For crisp and ragged Comfits make your decoction so high, as that it may run from the Ladle, and let it fall a foot high or more from the Ladle, and the hotter you cast on your sugar, the more ragged will your Comfits be; also the Comfits will not take so much of the sugar, as upon a light decoction, and they will keep their raggedness long; this high decoction must serve for eight or ten Coats, and put on at every time but one Ladle full. A quarter of a pound of Coriander seeds, and three pounds of sugar, will serve for very great Comfits. See that you keep your Sugar in the Basin always in good temper, that it burn not in Lumps, and if at any time it be too high boiled, put in a spoonful or two of water, and keep it warily with your Ladle, and let your fire be always very clear, when your Comfits be made, set them in Dishes upon Paper in the Sun or before the Fire, or in the Oven after Bread is drawn, for the space of one hour or two, and that will make them look very white. 

 Comfits 

1 tbsp. seed of choice (anise, fennel, caraway, etc.) 

1 cup sugar 

1/3 cup water

Instructions 1. If you choose to coat your seeds with gum arabic you will need to do that in the first few charges of syrup. The ratio that most of the later confectionary books used was 6:1 - 6 parts sugar syrup to 1 part gum arabic solution. It has an odd smell when you "cook" it, but that does not affect the taste  2. Heat the sugar and the water until it reaches 170 degrees for a smooth coat, or  225 degrees for a jagged coat.  3. While the sugar syrup is heating, you will want to heat your seeds or nuts in a large flat pan such as a wok or frying pan in order to release its essential oils.  If you cannot use your fingers to stir the seeds as they heat it is too hot.   4. Once the syrup has reached the temperature you want, take a teaspoon of it and pour it over the seeds in the pan. I shake the pan until the syrup has cooled enough I can smooth the seeds around with my fingers. However, you can use the back of a wooden spoon, and stir the seeds until the sugar dries.

  • If the seeds stick together, you have used too much syrup.
  • If the sugar forms pellets in the bottom of the pan then you have used too much syrup.

NOTE: In the first few charges (coats) of the syrup the seed will look grayish, and then they will gradually begin to turn white.   5. After about 12 charges, you are done for the day. I prefer my comfits smaller, so I usually do not do this process a second day. However, you can, if you wish, make another solution of syrup and coat your seeds again after they have had time to dry out overnight. The larger the comfits get, the more you will need to divide your batch. You need to be able to work with the pan.

NOTE: Beet juice, spinach juice, and saffron can be used to color your comfits in the last several charges of syrup, or, you can add a few drops of food coloring if you wish.  

To Make Cinnamon Comfits

 Cinnamon comfits require an extra step. First,  you need to make sure that you are using "true" cinnamon, that is Ceylon Cinnamon, which is soft, crumbly, and brittle. When you look at it, it is "compact" and consists of many layers. Cassia cinnamon is what you normally find in the store, and it is thick, and darker in color than Ceylon cinnamon which is a light rusty brown in color. Once you have obtained Ceylon cinnamon you will need to soak it overnight in water. This is so that you can shave it down into the needle-like strips that are needed to make the comfit. Then you will need to let your cinnamon dry thoroughly.  Once the cinnamon has dried completely, proceed as above, being careful to coat the cinnamon with the gum arabic/syrup solution in the first three charges (coats). You will need to stop coating your comfits after about eight charges of syrup and let them dry overnight. Then you can make another solution of syrup and continue the next day.  Enjoy! 

 Update: Regarding cinnamon comfits,  I have been able to make these successfully without soaking ahead of time.

Tench (Fish) Three-Ways

Originally published on Patreon Oct 7, 2022





After some debate, I placed all three interpretations from Two fifteenth-century cookery-books : Harleian MS. 279 (ab 1430), & Harl. MS. 4016 (ab. 1450), with extracts from Ashmole MS. 1439, Laud MS. 553, & Douce MS. 55 Thomas Austin for tench in sauce or broth on the same blog post. My reasoning for this is that they have more similarities than differences. The Tenche in Cyueye includes onions, the Tenche in Bruette does not and the Rapeye can be made with various fishes (including tench) and includes different raisins and spices.

The Glossary of Medieval & Renaissance Culinary Terms defines cyueye in the following way:

cive, civey(e), ciuey, cyuey, ceue, cyueye = Ragout or stew (possibly derived from a word meaning 'onion' (Plouvier). (Viandier) - Among other modern usages, this is probably a derivative of civey, which was at one time named for, and characterized by, the possibility of thickening a sauce with finely chopped onion, cooked till very soft. Some medieval recipes for civeys (for example, hare in civey) also call for blood as an additional thickener; nowadays the dish, which is now sometimes called civet, is mostly characterized by thickening and enriching the broth with the reserved blood of the critter you're cooking. It will coagulate if boiled, and turn very dark, but if heated properly it will assume a velvety texture similar to a stirred custard, and acquire a deep russet shade almost like a mole-poblano-type sauce. (Troy)
I was intrigued by the instructions to scald or boil the fish before roasting it. Scalding is a method of cleaning and killing any microorganisms that might be harmful. It involves heating a liquid (in this case water) or milk to just below boiling. If you have a thermometer 180 degrees is best. If you don't you want to keep an eye on the side of the pan. You can remove your liquid when you see small bubbles forming around the side and steam starting to wisp off the pan.

Original Recipe

.lxxxxiiij. Tenche in bruette.—Take þe Tenche, an sethe hem & roste hem, an grynde Pepir an Safroun, Bred and Ale, & tempere wyth þe brothe, an boyle it; þen take þe Tenche y-rostyd, an ley hym on a chargeoure; þan ley on þe sewe a-boue

Interpretation

94. Tench in Broth- Take the tench, and boil him and roast him, and grind pepper and saffron, bread and ale, and temper with the broth, and boil it, then take the tench roasted, and lay him on a charger; then lay on the sauce above.

Ingredients - Serves 1 as Main, 2 as side

1/4 pound fatty firm textured fish such as carp, perch, tench, bluefish or bass
1/4 tsp. pepper
pinch of saffron
1/4 cup dried bread crumbs
3/4 cup ale
3 tbsp. fish broth

Instructions In keeping with the instructions, I scalded the fish by placing it in a pot with just enough water to cover it. I then heated the pan until I saw small bubbles forming around the edge of it and steam starting to form. Due to modern methods of cleaning and butchering fish, I imagine you could have skipped this step without difficulty.

I removed the fish from the pan and placed it on a lightly oiled baking sheet and roasted it in the oven until it was done. While the fish was cooking in the oven I took a few tablespoons of the broth and added the saffron to it. Once the saffron had strongly colored the water, I added it to the ale (ok confession time--I used Sam Adams Summer Shandy made with lemon peel and grains of paradise) and then soaked the bread crumbs in it. Once the bread was soggy I put it in the pot and brought it to a boil until it formed a thick sauce. After the fish had finished cooking I plated and served it.

Original Recipe

.lxxxxv. Tenche in cyueye.—Take a tenche, an skalde hym, roste hym, grynde Pepir an Safroun, Brede an Ale, & melle it to-gederys; take Oynonys, hakke hem, an frye hem in Oyle, & do hem þer-to, and messe hem forth.

Interpretation

95. Tench in Civey - Take a tench, and scald him, roast him, grind pepper and saffron, bread and ale, and mix it together; take onions, hack them, and fry them in oil, and do them there-to, and mess him forth.

Ingredients - Serves 1 as Main, 2 as side

1/4 pound fatty firm textured fish such as carp, perch, tench, bluefish or bass
1/4 tsp. pepper
pinch of saffron
1/4 cup dried bread crumbs
3/4 cup ale
3 tbsp. fish broth
3 tbsp. onions
1 tbsp. oil

Instructions

To make this dish, follow the instructions above. The additional step is to lightly brown the finely chopped onion in oil, and after plating, garnish the plate with it.

Original Recipe

.Cxxxiij. Rapeye.—Take Pykys or Tenchys, oþer freysshe Fysshe, & frye it in Oyle; þen nyme crustys of whyte brede, & Raysonys & Canelle, an bray it wyl in a mortere, & temper it vppe wyth gode wyne; þen coloure it with Canelle, or a litil Safroun: þan boyle it, & caste in hol Clowys & Quybibes, & do þe Fysshe in a dysshe, & þan serue forth.
