furmenty

/ ˈfɜːməntɪ; ˈfɜːmɪtɪ /

noun

Now the King's favourite dish was hot furmenty; so he also fell into a fine rage and ordered Tom to be tried for high treason.

There was no fire burning in the stove, and there stood there a furmenty-pottage for six.

When the king sent for him, he forgave him for throwing down the furmenty, ordered him new clothes, and knighted him.
