Stuff from around the 'Net
Aarhus Press is offering "Warfare and Society " as the free e-book of the month, looking at the connections between war and society. This is a complex topic, and the book looks at the connections from anthropological, historical, philosophical and political aspects. You can download the book here.
Ask the Past gives you a 1798 recipe for Snowballs - which seem to be baked apples glazed with a baiser-like concoction. It does sound interesting, though the recipe is a bit short on details.
EXAR is having a Call for Papers for the next conference, which will take place in Unteruldingen, September 27-30. You can find the CfP here; the conference used to be rather heavy on the German side regarding the papers, but it has been several years since I was last able to attend due to time conflicts, so that may have changed.

I guess the "hot paste" mentioned is one of those pie crust doughs made with hot water that https://medievalyork.com/ often writes about?
Probably! It does make sense to use a crust of some kind around the apples, and that should serve well. You mean this kind of crust, right?
Aarhus have just (February 2018) re-thingied their web site and the free e-books have gone missing.
Yes, seems there is no free e-book anymore. Thanks for the heads-up - it was good while it lasted, the e-book offer, but I can understand that they are not doing it forever...
