gerisullivanWith tomorrow being Talk Like A Pirate Day and all, I went looking for pirate food recipes to supplement the not-pirate-food-but-we'll-fake-it deviled eggs I plan to take into the MCFI meeting tomorrow night. Presuming I get around to boiling them, that is. And deciding on which deviled egg filling I want to use this time....
I found: Brännvins-sweet-bread
They claim to be "(Swedish 17th century)." Bakers who know something about egg whites and oven temperatures, please look at the recipe
These small sweetbreads were consumed together with brännvin. (If you live outside Scandinavia you can use vodka instead).
1 dl of cinnamon
three whites of egg
2 dl of sugar
mix everything til ye got it looking like foam then pour it out with a spoon onto a plate the cakes should be the size of a larger coin bake for 5-10 minutes til they´re slightly golden. And now fer the fun part: take a cooled of bread in one hand and the ”sup” (dram) in the other. Put the bread in yer mouth and let it melt on yer tounge then empty the glass.
Cinnamon, egg whites, and sugar. Hmm. They sound like cinnamon meringues, or something very similar. My only problem is that the recipe doesn't give an oven temperature and most meringue cookies bake in a very slow oven (200-225 F) for an hour. These are supposed to turn "slightly golden" (as though you'll be able to notice through all that cinnamon), and bake in 5-10 minutes. Any recommendations as to what oven temperature I might want to try?
