Just not fair for Elmo to have all the tasty tidbits... http://www.garot.com/elmo/eating_children.asp So, a recipe or two just waiting for a fresh child, or kid...(add chiles as needed) ==================== Kid pie PASTEL DE CABRITO And if by chance the kids are too fat to be roasted, you may cut them in pieces, and make them into pasteles or empanadas (39) And you may take fine spice and chopped parsley and put them in the empanadas with a little sweet oil and take this food to the oven; and a little before you remove it from the oven, beat some eggs with verjuice or orange juice and put it in the empanada though the vent hole on the top of the empanada, and then return it to the oven for the space of three Paternosters. And then remove it, and put this pastel before the lord on a plate, and open it and give it to him. ===================== POTTAGE OF MARINATED KID WHICH IS CALLED JANETE OF KID POTAJE DE CABRITO ADOBADO QUE SE DICE JANETE DE CABRITO Take a forequarter of kid and cook it in a pot, and after it is cooked take it out, and cut it into pieces as big as a walnut; and take fatty bacon, and gently fry [the kid] with it and with a little bit of onion; then take toasted almonds and grind them in a mortar with a piece of kid's liver roasted on the coals and with a crustless piece of bread soaked in white vinegar; and all of this should be ground together with a pair of egg yolks for each dish; and after it is all well-ground, blend it with good broth. And then strain it through a woolen cloth; and when it has been strained, put it in the pot where it must cook. And cast in all fine spices; and put the kid in the pot together with the sauce. And cook it, and when it is cooked, cast a little cut-up parsley in the pot, and sugar, and make it in such a manner that it tastes a little of vinegar; and cast on it the pot-grease from the first cooking of the kid, and cast on enough. ===================== Eat 'em up yum...
