Perdicem cum pluma sua elixabis et madefactam depilabis. [perdices coctura]: occisa perdix potest ex iure coqui, ne indurescat. si ‹III› dierum fuerit, elixa coqui debet.

Translation

Method:

Place the pepper, lovage, coriander, mint and spikenard in a pestle and grind with a mortar until they form a paste. Add the dates and egg yolk and pound with the pestle until smooth.

Add the remaining ingredients to a small pan and spoon in the mixture from the mortar. Heat gently until the sauce thickens (remember to stir all the time with a wooden spoon otherwise the eggs will scramble).
