Two recipes, actually:

Emergency Biscuits from the Boston Cooking School Cookbook (facsimile, 1st
edition)

Mushrooms in Green Salsa from Platina's De Honesta Voluptate.
Reconstruction is my own. It's essentially mushrooms boiled, then fried in
olive oil with a bit of salt, then sauced with a grape vine leaf and garlic
sauce.

toodles, gretchen
