Stewpot Activities
No firm dates are scheduled yet, but here are some possible Stewpot activities:
-
Present "Tasting Tables" at events, where people can sample period dishes.
-
Have redacting workshops, where everyone takes the same recipe and redacts
it, then compare the results.
-
Sponsor or run a kingdom-level cooking collegium.
-
Facilitate distribution of period recipe sources:
-
Establish a “distributed reference library”. We have already begun
to do this (see our booklist), but we need
to continue to add information to this list.
-
Start a resource exchange – “I’ll trade you a photocopy of X for a photocopy
of Y” – for out-of-print/public domain materials.
-
Make a list of sources that are in print and where they can be obtained.
-
Make “giftie baskets” of hard-to-find spices like cubebs and saffron, and
present them to new cooks or cooks who did an exceptionally good job of
presenting a period feast.
-
Publish a cookbook (possibly, in the future?)
