A cheesemaking scene from the late 14th-century Taciunum Sanitatis Casanatense. The illumination shows the inside of a kitchen. On the right, a woman is stirring a remarkably deep cauldron suspended over a fire by a chain. A cheese strainer, ladle, and bowl are arranged on a table in the centre of the room. A man is carrying another cheese strainer - presumably full - out of the room on a platter lined with straw. On the left, a third man is seated on as bench eating cheese curds from a bowl, being watched by a large and very disappointed dog sitting on the floor.

Today's recipe is from the #15th-century Dorotheenkloster MS, and it is very odd indeed. Making #ziger from almond milk?
