Tansey. Take faire Tansey, and grinde it in a morter; And take eyren, yolkes and white, And drawe hem thorgh a streynour, and streyne also the Iuse of the Tansey thorgh a streynour; and medle the egges and the Iuse togidre; And take faire grece, and cast hit in a pan, and sette ouer the fyre til hit mylte; and caste the stuffe thereon, and gader hit togidre with a sawcer or a dissh, as thou wilt haue hit more or lasse; And turne hit in the panne onys or twies, And so serue it forth hote, yleched.
