Kleftiko?

[filkferengi]

One of the best cooks on the Bujold list just mentioned "a long, slow Greek Kleftiko (Thieves stew) where the meat is packed with its vegetables in a sealed container with little (but enough) water or wine and cooked VERY slowly for eight to ten hours. Because the juice is minimal, the flavor stays in the meat, but
the whole thing is moist. The Greek recipe uses sheep."

Any time you get a thief mentioned with a sheep, you know it'll get our attention. Could that be why Ornon lost his sheep? So Gen could get stewed? [weg]
