#REDIRECT [[Potluck]]
This is a list of foods that can often be gotten from your local shops, and don't generally require cooking, suitable for [[potluck feast]]s. If you feel like cooking, see period [[recepies]].

*period [[Fruit]]s
**[[apple]]
**[[orange]]
**[[grape]]s
**strawberries
**many more less common varieties listed under [[fruit]]
*[[Dried fruit]]s and [[nut]]s
**almost any fruit was dried ([[apple]], [[pear]], [[sultana]]s, dates, [[fig]]s,...)
**Most nuts ([[almond]], [[walnut]], [[hazelnut]], chestnut, pistachio) except [[peanut]]s, [[cashew]] are period
*[[cheese]]
*[[pie]]s
**[[fruit pie]]s (yes look in that supermarket freezer for apple, pear, apricot or berry pies), but please defrost them on a cold day. A period example: [[Pear_tart_(recipe)]]
**[[quiche]] - there is a kind of period [[tart]] - eg [[Ember_Day_Tart(recipe)]] much like a quiche, although more heavily spiced. Try for a plain quiche without tomatoe in it please.
**large [[meat]] pies, preferably with added other ingedients (not potato), eg a period pie with meat and berries [[Caneline_Beef_Pie(recipe)]]
*[[bread]] (remember the autocrat often supplies some too)
*[[roast chicken]] - hot or cold (but be careful of [[food safety]]
*cut cold meats
*some dips
**[[hommus]]
**chives and onion???
*[[salad]] - was made up of herbs and general leaffy stuff, including flowers and sometimes chopped fruit. Salad mix may not be a bad approximation to some period salads.
*sweet buns eg glazed sultana buns (I think)
*almond cake (look at the gormet italian coffee cakes in the supermarket)
*shortbread
*Angel's food - a sweet dip that goes well with italian or shortbread style biscuits, for dip see: [[Angels_food_(recipe)]]
