Reading edition
Cod. Dipl. No. 226. an. 805-831. The sufl-loaf which I have translated raised, is I presume derived from the word sufflare, and was probably carefully leavened. We unhappily have not the Anglosaxon receipt for beer; but I presume the text implies that fifteen mittan, whatever they were, of malt were to go to the amber. Oswulf’s character for splendid liberality will induce us to believe that he meant the monks to have an Audit ale of their own, as well as our worthy Fellows of Trinity College Cambridge.
