Part 2/6:
Before diving into the cooking process, let’s gather the necessary ingredients. For this recipe, you will need a tart or pie crust, which can be made using a medieval crust recipe available online. However, for those wishing to remain true to the medieval style, be cautious not to add any vanilla, despite its tempting flavor.
The key ingredients for our tart include:
1 pound of brie cheese
6 egg yolks
1/8 teaspoon of saffron or about ten threads, ground up
3/4 teaspoon of light brown sugar (to taste)
3/8 teaspoon powdered ginger
A pinch of salt
An optional hint of nutmeg or cinnamon can enhance the flavor, providing a beautiful color to the finished dish.
