Instructions:
Platina mentions several odd fishes not usually used today as food,
such as cuttlefish, scorpions, lampreys and sea-lion. But most of his
fish are still favorites-eels, lobsters, crabs, oysters, sturgeon and
sturgeon eggs (which he calls caviar), salmon, sole, etc., and he
gives a recipe for a Squid Dish for Days of Abstinence. Although
squid is eaten today in the South of France and Greece, and can be
found in special fish shops here, I would prefer salmon or halibut.
But if you hanker for squid, just go ahead with it if you can find
some, and be sure to have the fish man prepare it for you by removing
the black liquid from the backbone. A SQUID DISH FOR DAYS OF
ABSTINENCE--1475 Boil the squid. Crush what is good in a mortar.
Prepare a paste of almonds with rosewater strained through a sieve;
or, if you can't provide this, use the juice of peas or white
chickpeas. Crush together small grapes and five figs. Mix a little
rock parsley and a little fresh marjoram leaves. Add as much
cinnamon, ginger and sugar as is necessary. Mix these well with
whites of eggs so that they will stick together and cook better. With
the mixture well greased, and with a crust above and beneath, set it
on the hearth at a little distance from the flame. Sprinkle sugar and
rosewater on the cooked mixture. This dish assails all the members.
