Vaniliekage Cookies

MAKES ABOUT 80
vanilla pods 2
caster sugar 250g
plain wheat flour 500g, sifted
cold butter 375g, cut into small pieces
egg 1

Split the vanilla pods lengthways and scrape out the seeds with the tip of a knife. It's important to use real vanilla andnot vanilla essence. It will not be the same flavour and you want the small black seeds in the cookie.

Mix the caster sugar and the flour, then add the butter with your fingers until coarse crumbs are formed.

Add egg and vanilla seeds. Continue working until the dough is formed into a ball.

Put the dough on a lightly floured table and knead it for 1-2 minutes. Wrap the dough in cling film and chill for at least 1 hour or to next day.

Preheat the oven to 200C/gas mark 6.

Flour the table and roll the dough into sausages about 1cm thick and 5-6cm long. Curl each one into a ring and press the ends firmly together.

Place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake for about 7 minutes.

Cool on a wire rack and store in an airtight tin.

Humility: No, I expect no Danes will fret about sewing our shrouds, if he wins. And if death does take me, send the hammered mail of  my armor to Higlac, return the inheritance I had from Hrethel, and he from Wayland. Fate will unwind as it must! (185-189)
Courage: Before fighting Grendel Beowulf says “I have heard to that the monster scorn of men is so great that he needs no weapons and fears none. Not will I. My Lord Higlac might think less of me if I let my sword go where my feet were afraid too, if I hide behind some broad linden shield: my hands alone shall fight for me, struggle for life against the monster. God must decide who will be given to death's cold grip.”
Perseverance: Edgetho’s famous son stared at death, unwilling to leave this world, to exchange it for a dwelling in some distant place-- a journey into darkness that all men must make, as death ends their few brief hours on earth. (681-686)
