While I am less than thrilled with the fact that this particular student denied using AI (after asking to be cautious with it bc of IP and original research), I also understand, to an extent, where they’re coming from as non-native speakers.
But the burden shouldn’t be on students & teachers!

apparently, students now record classes using AI to generate notes
while you’re teaching. i, unfortunately, had the pleasure of noticing this midway through my lecture.
can’t say i have ever been this depressed over the state of higher education and the sheer lack of regulation.

Currently adding it as a sweetener to my yoghurt + muesli combo. Certainly very tasty!
As for the our fathers: yes, they were to measure time! Took me a minute or two, i said them in pretty quick succession, since the recipe said one or two. Some of the other recipes include longer prayers!

Thanks! We forgot about appropiate sterilized jars, I have to admit, and this was what I found in the back of the cupboard. We’re keeping this in the fridge for now as well.
If I’m making this again for re-enactment, I’ll probably prepare a bit more and sterilize everything properly 😁

(4/4) Everything has cooled down sufficiently to spoon it into a jar! Pretty clear why they labeled it as a red marmalade.
Taste wise: #nuntastic if you ask me! It is very sweet, though, and would probably go well with a piece of blue cheese.

(3/4) The sugar syrup is fairly straightforward, except that it is clarified as a consommé still is. The raft of egg whites can be removed after praying one or two Our Fathers (which I did).
To our surprise, it was quite helpful in removing the murky bits from the syrup!

(2/4) After quite a bit of going forth and back in the manuscript, we managed to figure out the right ratio of cane sugar syrup to quinces.
For 630g of quinces, we used 350g of cane sugar and 500ml water. Needless to say, we were a bit sceptical about the sheer amount of sugar required!

Part of the recipe in the original manuscript.
Three quinces on a cutting board.
Today, Sid and I are attempting a recipe for “roy marmelaede” with quinces from the Antwerp Annunciates’ recipe book (first half 17th century, with some later additions - @kbrbe.bsky.social).
Quite curious as to how this will go (1/?)
