Hirchones/Hedgehogs

It has been a thundery day where I live; very humid. I cut out an Elizabethan loose underkirtle and a new Elizabethan sleeve pattern. When the garment is eventually finished, I will blog a write-up on how it all went.

In the spirit of all things renaissance-y, here is what I made to go with tea. I used Constance Hieatt's version of the recipe. I think it came from 'An Ordinance of Pottage', but it may have been 'Pleyn Delit'.

Hedgehogs made of  pork mince, spices and slivered almonds

Everybody enjoyed them!
