Urdr’s Dish (What Has Been): Shepherd’s Pie A beloved staple of SCA feasts throughout the 1980s and 90s, served with fond nostalgia for our Society’s early days—before we learned it bore no resemblance to anything actually period!
Verdandi’s Dish (What Is): Benes Yfryed Beans fried with onions, garlic, and spices from The Forme of Cury (England, c. 1390). A Known World favorite for its ease of preparation and familiar flavors.
Skuld’s Dish (What Shall Be): Kheer & Tzoalli Indian rice pudding from the Manasollasa (India, 1130 CE) and Aztec amaranth honey bars from the Florentine Codex (Mexico, 16th c.). The future of the SCA embraces the full breadth of pre-17th century world cuisine.
