Or could this be due to old age&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For instance, I recently made some scones because I thought I&#8217;ve never tried that recipe before. But after I did a search on my blog, I realise I actually did that before, but many years ago. Most of the recipes here can be categorised according to before the boy was born and after he was born. Amazingly, it&#8217;s been ten years since he was born, and so I must have about three to four recipes per month x twelve months x ten years of recipes since then. Which makes it more than four hundred recipes since 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Gosh!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This post adds on to my continued effort to try out new recipes, to experiment, and to serve out past recipes that I can&#8217;t find anywhere &#8211; for instance recipes from my English Medieval Cookbook. To be honest, I don&#8217;t often cook these medieval recipes at home, though there&#8217;s one that stands out as my favourite &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/peepor.net\/pint\/blog\/?p=7711\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Medieval Chicken with Rice &amp; Ground Almond<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This blended fish stock is interesting. It is a soup, but a thick one, made with fish and stock. The fishy taste isn&#8217;t too strong and it can be quite an interesting experience for the palette.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And look at how pure that white colour is!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/em>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cod fillet: 600g, skinned<\/li>\n<li>Salted water: 575ml (2.5 cups)<\/li>\n<li>Ground almond: 125g<\/li>\n<li>Corn flour: 2 tsp<\/li>\n<li>Salt: to taste<\/li>\n<li>Ground blackpepper: to taste<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em><strong>Method<\/strong><\/em>:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Poach cod fillets in salted water till cooked (about 3min).

Pour 275ml of this stock over ground almond and stir to mix.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Strain almond milk into a blender. Add in cod flakes and blend till smooth. Add more fish stock to blend if you would like it to be less thick.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cream corn flour with 3 to 4 tbsp fish stock.
