there was a whole description on how they needed to have a cosy fire burning when people came to visit, so we thought we should make it as accurate as possible - the paperwork is a 'real' miniature version of the 'statuten' btw :-)

the original recipe has "peper coeken", but given the limited distribution of this classic (shame indeed) - I think the equivalents that were suggested are definitely worth a try (we are using ginger in the apple mix too, so this clearly fits the palate)

18de-eeuwse satirische prent met wolven, vossen en honden die de revolutie voorbereiden. Ze zijn gekleed als Franse revolutionairen
Vandaag is 🐺dag!
Hier revolutionaire roedelbroeders, meer van dat moois vindt u in 'WOLF: wildernisgeschiedenis', in de betere boekhandel (denk ik, het regent, ik ben nog niet gaan kijken)
