Froie sauge: A Cold Sage.


pg. 288 #73
Taillevent


Cook your poultry in water, then set it to cool; grind ginger, 
cassia buds (var.: cinnamon), grains of paradise and cloves, 
and do not strain them; then grind bread, parsley and sage, 
with, if you wish, a little saffron in this greenery to make 
it a bright green, and sieve this; and some people add strained, 
hard-cooked egg yolks steeped in vinegar ; do not boil.  Break 
your poultry apart into halves, quarters or members, set it out 
on plates with the sauce over and hard-cooked eggs whites on top.  
If you used hard eggs, cut them up with a knife rather than breaking 
them by hand.
