Origin: French      Period: Medieval

Original Recipe

Un Gruyau D'orge Mondè (from Le Viandier de Taillevent)

UN GRUYAU D'ORGE MONDé. (Et, s'il n'estoit mondé, appareillez le.) Pillez bien comme fourment en ung mortier, et le mettez cuire, et le purez, et le mettez boullir avec lait d'amendes et y mettez du sel et du succre; et aucuns le broient et coullent; et ne doibt mie estre trop lyant.

Translation:

Gruyau: A Gruel of Husked Barley. If it is not husked, prepare it: pound it in a mortar like wheat, cook it and mash it; then set it to boil with almond milk, with salt and sugar. Some people grind it and strain it. It should not be at all too thick.

Modern Redaction

Ingredients:

400g cooked barley, mashed
2l Almond Milk
2 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt


Method:

Add the almond milk to a pan and bring to the boil. Now add the barley, stir well, and return to boil, stirring to prevent sticking. Immediately reduce the heat to a simmer, and stir in the sugar and salt. Continue simmering for several minutes, stirring occasionally, until the barley and milk have thoroughly cooked together.

The final product should only be slightly thicened. Serve immediately, or run through a food processor for a smooth consistency, in order to 'grind it and strain it'.
