6 tbsp Currants
2 tsp Salt
5 Saffron threads
¾ tsp Ground ginger
¾ tsp Black pepper
½ tsp Ground mace

Recipe




In saucepan, simmer meat in water 20 minutes. Drain. Line 8" square baking dish with pastry. In bowl, combine meat, dates and currants. Place meat mixture into pastry-lined dish.

In bowl, combine salt, saffron, ginger, pepper, mace, cloves, wine, vinegar and 9 egg yolks, reserving 1 yolk, and pour over. Cover with top crust, crimp well, make triangular cuts in center and fold tips back.
