Quails, or Ruffs and Rees

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Wrap the quails with bards of bacon and place vine leaves over them.

  3. Roast the quails until cooked through.

  4. Prepare a sauce with cuilis and red port.

  5. Serve the quails with the sauce in a separate dish.

Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
