"Hélène Jawhara Piñer understands that at first mention, a #cookbook about #matzah and flour might not grab the imagination. After all, she said, matzah has a long-held reputation as the “squared, crunchy, untasty” food we eat on #Passover.

But Piñer is an academic who has studied medieval #Jewish #food culture in #Spain and #France, and she accepted the challenge of winning over matzah skeptics by writing a #historical cookbook about it.

“Most people don’t know how matzah can be so exciting,” she said.

J. · Sephardic culinary historian seeks to win over matzah skeptics“Matzah and Flour” includes recipes from across Sephardic Jewish history. Author Hélène Jawhara Piñer posits that matzah can be "exciting.”

Today I'm trying a new "scallops" recipe using king oyster mushrooms. It's in the new cookbook I got from Nisha Vora's new cookbook Big Vegan Flavor, she's a spectacular recipe developer. I might have an excellent faux meat lunch today, I absolutely love scallops. Even if I still ate meat scallops are now about $34/pound here. 😬 I got a pound of giant oyster mushrooms at an Asian grocery for $3. #Vegan #Recipe #Cookbook

This manky old #cookbook was published in 1983 by a little #vegetarian restaurant in #Brisbane #Australia.

I inherited it from my mum - who brought it brand new from the restaurant - when I left home at 17 and it has travelled with me ever since, including in my move across the world to Denmark.

I was just checking a recipe in it to add some stuff to our family shopping list for this weekend and it suddenly occurred to me that I have been eating #recipes out of this through 5 decades, and it is still my most used cookbook.

5 Decades!

And the pages haven't even fallen out ... althought there might be a bit of lentil splatter on them :P

Props to Squirrels if they still exist. Thanks for all the noms.

Hey, psssst! Does anyone care for some... fake roast venison? It's medieval! And super, super sweet! Aaand it is fancy - it brings it's own BLING! (I mean gilded almonds! Whoa!) And basically it's vegan, because it is a christian Lenten dish from the 1. printed German Cookbook from 1485. Have a look at it (and at my fail during cooking this. 😅). Experimental archaeology in action.

Being a good Christian and still wanting to show off your wealth? This is how it worked in the Middle Ages: "Rechproten in der vasten" is a recipe for fake roast venison. Basically a sweet, vegan Lenten dish from dried fruits, spices, wine and rolls - expensive ingredients at this time. It's a recipe from the first printed German-language cookbook "Kuchemeysterey" from 1485 .
