使用する際の注意点

• Often translated as sweetbread, i.e. the thymus gland and/or pancreas. Johnston 1954 argues that based on the context in which it is used, the word must refer to a larger cut of meat, nominating the tenderloin as a likely candidate.

名詞

glandium

1. genitive plural of glāns
   • c. 77 CE – 79 CE, Pliny the Elder, Naturalis Historia 16.25:

     Glans fagea suem hilarem facit, carnem cocibilem ac levem et utilem stomacho, iligna suem angustam, non nitidam, strigosam; ponderosam querna, diffusam, grandissima et ipsa glandium atque dulcissima.

     • 1945 translation by H. Rackham

       Beech-mast fed to pigs livens them up, and makes their flesh easy to cook and light and digestible; whereas the acorns of the holm-oak make a pig thin, nota glossy, meagre. Acorns from the common oak make it heavy and lumpish, being themselves also the largest of nuts and the sweetest in flavour.

   • c. 77 CE – 79 CE, Pliny the Elder, Naturalis Historia 15.92:

     'Nuces' vocamus et castaneas, quamquam adcommodatiores glandium generi.

     We also call chestnuts 'nuts', although they seem to fit better into the class of acorns.
