INDEX AND GLOSSARY TO MR. BRANDER'S ROLL OF COOKERY.

2

The Numbers relate to the order of the Recipes.

3

N.B. Many words are now written as one, which formerly were divided, as al so, up on, &c. Of these little notice is taken in the Index, but I mention it here once for all.

4

Our orthography was very fluctuating and uncertain at this time, as appears from the different modes of spelling the same words, v. To gedre; v. wayshe; v. ynowkz; v. chargeant; v. coraunte; &c.

5

A. abounds, a gode broth, 5. 26, al a nyzt, 192. _in_. a two, 62.

Almaunds unblaunched, ground, and drawn with good broth, is called mylke, 62. Cow's milk was sometimes used instead of it, as MS. Ed. I. 13. Creme of Almands how made, 85. Of it, Lel. Coll. VI. p. 17. We hear elsewhere of Almond-butter, v. Butter.

19

Azeyn. 24. again. Lel. Coll. IV. p. 281. alibi. Chaucer. A.S. [Anglo- Saxon: Azen].

20

47

Balles. 152. Balls or Pellets.

48

Blank Desire. 193, 194. bis. Lel. Coll. VI. p. 5. In No. 193, we meet with _Blank desne_, but the Contents has _Desire_, which is right, as appears from the sequel. In MS. Ed. 29. it is _Blank-Surry_, and _Sury_, and _Sure_, and _de Sur_. II. 19. de Syry, 31. and here No. 37, it is Dessorre. and we have _Samon in Sorry_. Lel. Coll. VI. p. 17. Perches, ibid. Eels p. 28. 30. where it is a Potage. whence I conceive it either means _de Surrey_, i. e. Syria, v. Chaucer. v. _Surrey_. Or it may mean _to be desired_, as we have _Horsys of Desyr_. Lel. Coll. IV. p. 272. See No. 63. and it is plainly written _Desire_ in Godwin de Præsul. p. 697. In this case, the others are all of them corruptions.

56

Boter. MS. Ed. 38. Butter.

57

Borage. 6.

58

Betes. 6. Beets. Fr. _Bete_.

59

Bursen. n. name of a dish. Bursews, No. 179, is a different dish.

60

Brek. MS. Ed. 6. 23. break, bruise.

61

Brest, breste. MS. Ed. 1. 14. burst.

62

Bukkennade. 17. a dish. Buknade, 118. where it means a mode of dressing. vide MS. Ed. 45. 52.

63

Bryddes. 19. Briddes, 60. 62. Birds, per metathesin. Chaucer.

64

Brawn of Capons. 20. 84. Flesh. Braun. MS. Ed. 29. v. Chaucer, we now say, _brawn of the arm_, meaning the flesh. Hence _brawn-fall'n_. Old Plays, XI. p. 85. Lylie's Euphues, p. 94. 142. Chaucer. Brawn is now appropriated to these rolls which are made of Brawn or Boar, but it was not so anciently, since in No. 32 we have _Brawn of Swyne_, which shews the word was common to other kinds of flesh as well as that of the Boar; and therefore I cannot agree with Dr. Wallis in deducing _Brawn _ from _Aprugna_.

65

Blank maunger. 36. 192. Chaucer writes _Blank manger_. Blomanger. MS. Ed. 14. 33. 34. II. 7. N. B. a very different thing from what we make now under that name, and see Holme, III. p. 81.

66

Bronchis. MS. Ed. 55. Branches.

67

Braan. MS. Ed. II. 10. Bran.

68

Bet. MS. Ed. II. 21. Beaten.

69

Broche. MS. Ed. 58. a Spit.

70

Brewet of Almony. 47. v. Almony. of Ayrenn, or eggs, 91. MS. Ed. 23. Eles in Brewet, 110. where it seems to be composed of Bread and Wine. Muskles in Brewet, 122. Hens in Bruet, MS. Ed. 7. Cold, 131. 134. Bruet and Brewet are French _Brouet_, Pottage or Broth. Bruet riche, Lel. Coll. IV. p. 226. _Beorwete_, p. 227, as I take it. _Blanche Brewet de Alyngyn_, MS. Ed. 13. 23.

71

Boon. 55. Bone. Chaucer.

72

Brennyng. 67. 188. burning, per metathesin, from _bren_ or _brenne_, used by Skelton, in the Invective against Wolsey, and many old authors. Hence the disease called brenning or burning. Motte's Abridgement of Phil. Trans. part IV. p. 245. Reid's Abridgement, part III. p. 149. Wiclif has _brenne_ and _bryne_. Chaucer, v. _bren_, _Brinne_, &c.

73

Blake. 68. Black. Chaucer.

74

Berst. 70. 181. 192. burst. Chaucer. A.S. [Anglo-Saxon: berstan].

'meat made of boiled hens, crummed bread, yolk of eggs, and safron, all boiled together,' Speght ad Chaucer. So called, says Skinner, who Writes it _mortress_, because the ingredients are all pounded together in a mortar.

378

Moscels. 47. Morsels. Chaucer has _Morcills_. Moscels is not amiss, as _Mossil_ in Chaucer is the muzle or mouth.

A Nost, I. crasis of _an Oste_, or Kiln; frequent in Kent, where _Hop-oste_ is the kiln for drying hops. 'Oost or East: the same that kiln or kill, Somersetshire, and elsewhere in the west,' Ray. So _Brykhost_ is a Brick-kiln in Old Parish-Book of _Wye_ in Kent, 34 H. VIII. 'We call _est_ or _oft_ the place in the house, where the smoke ariseth; and in some manors _austrum_ or _ostrum_ is that, where a fixed chimney or flew anciently hath been,' Ley, in Hearne's Cur. Disc. p. 27. _Mannors_ here means, I suppose manor-houses, as is common in the north. Hence _Haister_, for which see Northumb. Book, p. 415. 417. and Chaucer, v. Estris.

403

Noumbles. 11. 13. Entrails of any beast, but confined now to those of a deer. I suspect a crasis in the case, quasi _an Umble_, singular for what is plural now, from Lat. _Umbilicus_. We at this day both say and write _Umbles_. _Nombles_, MS. Ed. 12. where it is _Nomblys of the venyson_, as if there were other Nomblys beside. The Fr. write Nombles.

Porpays, Porpeys. 69. 108. salted, 116. roasted, 78. _Porpus_ or Porpoise. _Porpecia_, Spelm. Gl. v. Geaspecia, which he corrects _Seaspecia_. It is surprising he did not see it must be _Graspecia_ or _Craspiscis_, i.e. _Gros_ or _Crassus Piscis_, any large fish; a common term in charters, which allow to religious houses or others the produce of the sea on their coasts. See Du Cange in vocibus. We do not use the Porpoise now, but both these and Seals occur in Archb. Nevill's Feast. See Rabelais, IV. c. 60. and I conceive that the _Balænæ_ in Mr. Topham's MS. means the Porpus.

Quare. 5. It seems to mean to quarter, or to square, to cut to pieces however, and may be the same as to _dyce_. 10. 60. Dice at this time were very small: a large parcel of them were found under the floor of the hall of one of the Temples, about 1764, and were so minute as to have dropt at times through the chinks or joints of the boards. There were near 100 pair of ivory, scarce more than two thirds as large as our modern ones. The hall was built in the reign of Elizabeth. To _quare_ is from the Fr. quarrer; and _quayre_ or _quaire_, subst. in Chaucer, Skelton, p. 91. 103. is a book or pamphlet, from the paper being in the quarto form. See Annal. Dunstap. p. 215, Ames, Typ. Antiq. p. 3. 9. Hence our quire of paper. The later French wrote _cahier_, _cayer_, for I presume this may be the same word. Hence, _kerve hem to dyce_, into small squares, 12. _Dysis_, MS. Ed. 15.

Bishop Godwin renders it _Vinum aromaticum_. It was brought both at beginning of splendid entertainments, if Apicius is to be underslood of it. Lib. I. c. 1. See Lister, ad loc. and in the middle before the second course; Lel. Coll. IV. p. 227. and at the end. It was in use at St. John's Coll. Cambr. 50 years ago, and brought in at Christmas at the close of dinner, as anciently most usually it was. It took its name from _Hippocrates' sleeve_, the bag or strainer, through which it was passed. Skinner, v. Claret; and Chaucer. or as Junius suggests, because strained _juxta doctrinam Hippocratis_. The Italians call it _hipocrasso_. It seems not to have differed much from _Piment_, or Pigment (for which see Chaucer) a rich spiced wine which was sold by Vintners about 1250. Mr. Topham's MS. Hippocras was both white and red. Rabelais, IV. c. 59. and I find it used for sauce to lampreys. Ibid. c. 60.

701

There is the process at large for making ypocrasse in a MS. of my respectable Friend Thomas Astle, esq. p. 2. which we have thought proper to transcribe, as follows:

702

'To make Ypocrasse for lords with gynger, synamon, and graynes sugour, and turefoll: and for comyn pepull gynger canell, longe peper, and claryffyed hony. Loke ye have feyre pewter basens to kepe in your pouders and your ypocrasse to ren ynne. and to vi basens ye muste have vi renners on a perche as ye may here see. and loke your poudurs and your gynger be redy and well paryd or hit be beton in to poudr. Gynger colombyne is the best gynger, mayken and balandyne be not so good nor holsom.... now thou knowist the propertees of Ypocras. Your poudurs must be made everyche by themselfe, and leid in a bledder in store, hange sure your perche with baggs, and that no bagge twoyche other, but basen twoyche basen. The fyrst bagge of a galon, every on of the other a potell. Fyrst do in to a basen a galon or ij of redwyne, then put in your pouders, and do it in to the renners, and so in to the seconde bagge, then take a pece and assay it. And yef hit be eny thyng to stronge of gynger alay it withe synamon, and yef it be strong of synamon alay it withe sugour cute. And thus schall ye make perfyte Ypocras. And loke your bagges be of boltell clothe, and the mouthes opyn, and let it ren in v or vi bagges on a perche, and under every bagge a clene basen. The draftes of the spies is good for sewies. Put your Ypocrase in to a stanche wessell, and bynde opon the mouthe a bleddur strongly, then serve forthe waffers and Ypocrasse.'

Since the foregoing sheets were printed off, the following very curious Rolls have happily fallen into the Editor's hand, by the favour of John Charles Brooke, Esq. Somerset Herald. They are extracted from a MS. belonging to the family of Nevile of Chevet, near Wakefield, com. Ebor. and thence copied, under the direction of the Rev. Richard Kay, D.D. Prebendary of Durham.

706

These Rolls are so intimately connected with our subject, as exhibiting the dishes of which our Roll of _Cury_ teaches dressing and preparation, that they must necessarily be deemed a proper appendix to it. They are moreover amusing, if not useful, in another respect; _viz_. as exhibiting the gradual prices of provisions, from the dates of our more ancient lists, and the time when these Rolls were composed, in the reign of Henry VIII. For the further illustration of this subject, and extract from the old Account-Book of _Luton_, 19 _Hen_. VIII is super-added; where the prices of things in the South, at the same period, may be seen. And whoever pleases to go further into this matter of _prices_, may compare them with the particulars and expence of a dinner at Stationer's-Hall, A.D. 1556. which appeared in the St. James's Chronicle of April 22, 1780.

707

We cannot help thinking that, upon all accounts, the additions here presented to our friends must needs prove exceedingly acceptable to them.
