I should have asked sooner but, hows your health, and that book you were going to write, and the Rochester White Hot recipe coming along?
Immuno-suppression has its ups and downs, but I'm alive and getting stronger over time. I resumed archery, back in January, to rebuild my shoulders and that's been challenging and fun. The recession sucks and I've given up on contracting. Looking for a local job with more dependability.
The critical edition of the medieval Catalan cookery manuscripts continues to progress, thanks. I'm about to run another printing of my first book of medieval recipes, which is in its second edition; a bookseller on the West Coast wants some copies.
I have two on-going sausage projects underway. I'm working on homemade emulsion sausage batter, this summer, for the White Hots. Getting a really good emulsion batter is difficult on home appliances. Friends in Rochester and from Buffalo have helped me develop a pretty good profile and I've got a tentative formula to work with. If it's good, I'll share it. The other project is the embutido project, documenting and collecting recipes for sausages of Spain. I've already posted about the androlla, and am sorting out the related botillo sausages, now. There are about 18 conflicting variations on the botillo with more ancient ties and variations of those.
Thanks for asking!
