Re: Medieval cooking
Fancy hedgehog for tea?
Gut and clean it.
Pack it in clay rich mud.
Throw it on the fire.
Done.
The clay holds in moisture like an oven chicken brick. It protects the hedgehog from direct heat. Also the clay harden to the spikes (hairs) making it easy peel.

Re: Medieval cooking
That was great Terry Kay and Anna...I always loved watching The Two Fat Ladies and have a few of their cookbooks, but missed that episode.
