'Sweetish' spices work really well with goat. Birria tacos use goat and cinnamon. You're going to feast like a medieval royal.

Ha! Medieval cookery is actually a thing of mine. Some [ingredient], enough, until it be done. Fuck your scales & thermometers!

Oh yeah, throw things into a pressure/slow cooker (or cauldron if at hand), let the ingredients dance and get to know each other and serve with crusty bread of some sort.

Quaff some ale or mead after for full effect.

I'll need an email address. Or you could find some sort of access to EEBO yourself??

[โ€“] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'll check out EEBO (don't share my email online...personal policy).
