INSTRUCTIONS
"Vyaunde de Cyprys in Lente" or Food of Cyprus in Lent [?] From "Two
Fifteenth Century Cookbooks"
Flake the crabmeat and salmon, put them in the blender with the almond milk
and puree'. Spoon into a saucepan, heat gently and sprinkle in the flour.
Stir until thickened and then add the wine and sugar. Stir in the
pomegranate seeds and season to taste with a little pepper and salt. Chill
in a wetted mold. Turn out to serve. "This dish is such an attractive
colour- pale pink studded with the scarlet seeds of the pomegranate that it
seems a nice idea to redden it even further by surrounding the mould with a
salad of sliced beetroot, radishes and young beetroot tops, with a
vinaigrette dressing."
