<i>Ang. <b>spikenard</b> så hittade jag följande i Merriam-Webster online</i>:
Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French or Medieval Latin; Middle French spicanarde, from Medieval Latin spica nardi, literally, spike of nard
Date: 14th century
1 a : a fragrant ointment of the ancients b : a Himalayan aromatic plant (Nardostachys jatamansi) of the valerian family from which spikenard is believed to have been derived
2 : an American herb (Aralia racemosa) of the ginseng family with aromatic root and panicled umbels
Clowes gylofre är längre form för cloves (kryddnejlika).
noie#658; mugade#658; har jag inte kunnat hitta någon förklaring till (än).

Hypokras, från The Good Housewife’s Jewel
To make hypocrace
Take a gallon of white wine*, sugar two pounds, of cinnamon, ginger, long pepper, mace not bruised, grains**, galingall and cloves, not bruised. You must bruise every kind of spice a little and put them in an earthen pot all day. Then cast them through your bags two times or more as you see cause. And so drink it.
*Författaren påpekar att hypokras vanligen görs på rött vin men att denna version använder vitt.
**I originalreceptet står y.d. efter dessa kryddor, dvs. antingen y-diced eller y-drawn.
Ha det...
