    Recipe Introduction


    This version of Sambocade is a combination of the recipes from Forme of Cury and The Closet of Sir Kenelm Digby, Opened, posthumously printed in 1699.

    List of Ingredients




    1 nine-inch pie shell
    2 Tbs. heavy cream
    2 Tbs. dried elderflowers
    3/4 lb. cottage cheese
    3/4 lb. ricotta cheese
    3 eggs
    ¼ lb. butter
    1/3 cup sugar
    ¼ tsp. cloves
    ¼ tsp. mace
    1 Tbs. rosewater (optional)

    Recipe



    Combine all ingredients and blend thoroughly. (A food processor or blender will do the job nicely.) Pour mixture into pie shell. Bake at 350° F for 45 minutes to an hour, or until filling has set and the crust is a golden brown. Let cool and serve.
    Elderflowers can be found at natural food stores, herb & spice specialty shops, stores that carry exotic teas, etc. I find them at my local food co-operative. Don't use a substitution - the flavor of elderflowers is unique and the taste of the final product depends on the real thing.

    Rosewater is a remarkable liquid that can be found in Oriental, Indian, and other imported food stores. The rose aroma & flavor are strong and powerful - be sure to use the real thing and not a substitute.
