Part 3/8:
The medieval dish known as soppes dorre, or golden sops, emerges as a medieval counterpart to modern favorites like Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The recipe involves ground almonds mixed with wine, sugar, and spices, poured over toasted bread to create a delightful blend of flavors and textures.
The preparation of soppes dorre necessitates several ingredients, including saffron, sugar, salt, and thick slices of white bread. The process starts with crafting a homemade almond milk using raw almonds, water, and white wine. The toasted bread is then soaked with this sweet, spiced liquid, embodying the rich tradition of breakfast within medieval society.
