A Potage

 

" The potage described below will separate if left to stand for more than a

day in the refrigerator. "

 

1 cup red wine

3 eggs, beaten

1 cup almond milk

1/4 cup currants

3 dates, pitted and chopped

dash pepper

1/2 tsp sandalwood bark chips [i believe this adds red colouring. Use red

food colouring if you can't get it].

1/8 tsp clove powder

1 tsp mace powder

3 tbs honey

1/4 tsp salt

1 tbs rice flower

 

Put eggs and wine in a small pot. Bring the mixture to a boil. When the

eggs clot, remove from the heat and allow to cool. Add the almond milk.

Pass the mixture through a strainer into a bowl. Add remaining ingredients.

Pour the mixture into a clean bowl and heat to boiling. Reduce heat and

simmer gently until the volume of the mixture is reduced by half. Stirring

occasionally. Remove the sandalwood bark chips before serving. Pour

mixture into a shallow serving plate. Serve warm or cold. Makes 2 cups.
