The translators of the original manuscript wrote:
Bread is a thickening, and he says after that eggs are another thickening, and one or the other is enough, as he said in the section on 'cretonnee'.
Verjuice and wine: If you want to make soup with milk, you do not need wine or verjuice.

Chicken Cominée

Cut it into pieces and put it to cook in water and a little wine, then fry in fat, then take a little bread, moisten in your stock, and first take ginger and cumin, mixed with verjuice, grind and sift and put all together with meat or chicken stock, and then add color with saffron or eggs or egg-yolks strained and poured from above into the soup after it has been removed from the fire, Item, the best way is use milk as I said before, then grind your bread after your spices, but you must boil the milk first so that it does not curdle; and when the soup is done, the milk should be added to wine, though I see no reason for this, and fried, Some do not fry it, but it is said to be better fried.
