7:18 okay rant coming up, sorry in advance for correcting you, but- Babies do not grow inside of placentas! Babies grow in the womb, and if we want to be more specific they grow in the amniotic sac, which typically bursts after birth, but that's a conversation for another time. To make things easier, think back to when you were learning about fish in elementary school. Remember the yolk sac? The thing on the baby fish that contains nutrients? The placenta is kind of like that! The placenta is an organ that the body grows once pregnancy begins (And i mean wow- a whole new temporary organ!) used to help regulate blood flow and transfer nutrients from the parent to the baby. The placenta is connected to the baby by the umbilical cord, which is like a little tube attached to what will later be the belly button. The baby and placenta come out separately, and the umbilical cord is then cut. Its very important that the placenta comes out in one piece, otherwise if any stays attached to the parent they will start to hemorrhage as the body tells them to continue giving blood to an organism that's no longer there. Even more interestingly, you can put a piece of placenta in the parent's mouth to help slow these affects. In nature, most animals after giving birth will eat the placenta- its still full of nutrients and can help a lot in the recovery process. It's not super common these days, but some people will eat their placentas- usually not raw, some take them in the form of capsules or cook them up. Its all very interesting! Again, terribly sorry for ranting- Its just what I get for having a mother whos a midwife.

This dessert reminds me of an Italian Easter cheese pie that is called pastiera. My Italian grandmother made it with rice, ricotta cheese, eggs and spices in a pastry lined pie plate. It was topped with strips of dough arranged on top in a lattice pattern. My grandfather's family made it with a more traditional recipe that called for the addition of whole wheat berries instead of Arborio rice. Some families use tiny, star-shaped pasta instead of either grain. I have assumed over the years that the whole wheat groats were likely the original addition to the recipe. Now I wonder if pastiera was a Medieval or Renaissance talian version of the placenta recipe.

I noticed that fresh bay leaves were used. Dried bay might serve the purpose of keeping the crust from sticking, but probably not especially well for adding flavor. For those who have never used it in cooking, fresh bay will be a glorious revelation. There is simply no comparison to dried. Fresh bay is not all that easy to find in many parts of the U.S., but it is, in my experience, of easy cultivation. In USDA zones 7 and higher it can be grown in the ground outdoors. It may sometimes die back to the ground in that zone but I have never known it not to come back. I have grown it with good success in a pot in zone 4, overwintering it indoors, which it does quite nicely, being semi dormant. Treat yourselves!

You are quite right about the various pronunciations of Latin. When I took Latin, around 1970 for 3 years, we were told that we would be using the way it was pronounced from around the time of Julius Caesar. So vowels were soft, i.e. Pax (peace) the A was like pauc (or Ox) not hard like pack and also the V in Vobiscum was as a double-u, similar to wood.... So Latin wasn't as modern day Catholics pronounce it.

@ernstschmidt4725 3 года назад

a soft C was often seen as a vulgarization of the letter C. a signal or plebeian or even barbaric upbringing. but as max said. it was real latin, not the latin that aristocrats would like, but latin nonetheless

@hhs_leviathan 3 года назад

I don't know why he would do that.. singing church hymns with a hard K would sound kinda wrong... EDIT: Okay now that I think about it some words should have a hard K and some a soft Che. Like Clavis (K) and Cealica (Che and K)

@mkm3561 2 года назад

The pronunciation from plaKenta to plaGenta to modern italian plaTJenta and modern french/ english plaSenta is actually a phenomenon known as palatalization where a nonpalatal consonant shifts to a palatal consonant. Meaning it shifts from a hard sound to a softer more smooth sound. Palatalization seems universal in language evolution and you can find it e.g. in both the english language and in scandinavian languages (and many more of course). If you make the sound K to G to TJ to S you can actually feel it moving forward in you mouth making it more smooth.

I can’t believe the baby placenta was named after a cheesecake. Imagine how many awkward misunderstandings there were when that was starting to become a thing...

It was probably something along the lines of “uterine placenta” first, before it got shortened.
