Why is roman apple cake important to roman culture?

Apple cake was simply part of the range of Roman desserts. The most common dessert was actually a bowlful of fruit. Ancient cakes were not like today's cakes. They more like enriched bread. A proper distinction between bread and cakes developed during the Middle Ages. Ancient cakes were basic bread doughs enriched with butter, eggs and honey (sugar was not used back then and honey was the sweetener). The range of added ingredients was limited: ground hazelnuts or almonds, dried apricots or cooked apples.


What livestock did the serfs and peasants raise in the middle ages?

They raised their own livestock and (in much larger quantities) the livestock of their feudal overlord.A farming peasant might have a few geese, or chickens, or goats, or a few cattle, or a few pigs. Pigs were by far the cheapest animals to feed since they would eat scraps and for several months of the year they were turned out "to pannage" in woodland - eating roots, beech mast and acorns. Sheep and goats provided milk for cheese and butter-making and the geese and chickens provided eggs.The feudal overlord might have a huge flock of sheep and goats, together with many cattle, geese, pigs and other animals, as well as rabbits protected within an enclosed warren, deer in parkland and hunting forest, pigeons in a dovecot and various game birds for hawking. All of these were tended by peasants who rarely saw any of the food they provided - it all went to the overlord's table.


What is a roman bakery called?

The Romans and BreadBaking flourished in the Roman Empire from as early as 300BC but it wasn't until 168BC that the first Bakers Guild was formed, within 150 years there were more than three hundred specialist pastry chefs in Rome.The whole craft was incorporated in a guild of bakers - COLLEGIUM PISTORUM - and was of so high repute in the affairs of the state that one of its representatives had a seat in the Senate. The ruins of Pompeii and other buried cities have revealed the kind of bakeries that existed in those historic times.The Romans enjoyed several kinds of bread, with interesting names. Lentaculum, made originally flat, round loaves made of emmer, (a cereal grain closely related to wheat flour) with a bit of salt were eaten. There was also oyster bread (to be eaten with oysters); 'artolaganus' or cakebread; 'speusticus' or 'hurry bread', tin bread, Parthian bread and the Roman Style Slipper LoafBreads were made richer by adding milk, eggs and butter, but only the wealthy and privileged could afford these. The Egyptian grammarian and philosopher Athenaeus, who lived in the 3rd century A.D., has handed down to us considerable knowledge about bread and baking in those days.


What did the Dairymaid do in the medieval times?

A 12th century description of "The ideal dairymaid" says that she should be honest and reliable, hard-working , wise and neat, not lavish but thrifty. She must not permit anyone to take away anything from the dairy that would reduce the account. She must receive the materials and vessels for her work from the reeve and keep a careful record, including the day she began work. She must receive the milk by tallies and make cheese and butter according to the tally of gallons of milk; she must guard the poultry and give to the bailiff and reeve frequent reports on the profits gained from them; she must make at least 12 silver pence per year from each goose and 4 for each hen in regard to eggs. She is also required to help with winnowing and sifting at harvest time, to cover the fire each evening at 8 pm and she is called upon to perform other tasks as required. Dairy maids were also required to keep themselves clean, particularly with regard to their hands - something that did not apply to field workers, grooms, shepherds, ploughmen and other servants.

How could butter be haram?

Butter can be haram if it was mixed with pig fats which were haram for muslims to eat. (Whether these pig fats were mixed intentionally, i.e. the creation of a lard/butter mix, or unintentionally, i.e. the same machines used in pork production are re-purposed for butter production without proper, ritually-acceptable cleaning, is irrelevant. It is the presence of these fats which poses the problem.)
