Ehdomicfarta (ee-doe-mick-far-ta) is Spanish for a small pastries made in ancient Latino nations. The ancient Chivatano women used to spend days grinding corn using only their course hair against calloused hands. They would take a grain of corn and rap a long thick strand of their hair around it then rub it in between their hands for hours and hours. One gram of ground corn took 6 hours alone. Because of the amount of time required to make these they are highly prized in the Civilizations. It was seen in the Chivatano people that if the women had a lot of hair then their pastries were not good, and did not please their men. If the women were bald, those were who the men wanted to marry. This food greatly influenced the marriage tradition. When a woman was to wed she would start a pastry to present her husband during the wedding. The filling that was inserted inside the Ehdomicfartas were rather peculiar. The men would also contribute to the wedding pastry by capturing the inside. He would go hunting for hours and find as many rodents as possible, and the reddest berries in the land. His soon to be wife would choose the most healthy one and skin it. She would then slice off the head and tail. She cubed the meat and then boiled the blood. She separated the meat and prayed over it for 3 days placing a grain of salt on it with every word. On the fourth day she would soak the meat back in the blood. She would remove the stems from the berries and mash them together adding milk to make them fluffy. She would flatten out the crust she labored hard on and then insert the blood-stained rodent meat. Then on top of that she would lay a thin layer of pastry then spread the berry mixture on it evenly. The wife would again pray happiness and longevity towards her marriage, then close up the crust. She would then place it on top of two large rocks that had been heated by the sun to a temperature too hot to touch and watch them closely for 4 days. She stood guard over it because everybody loved this delicacies and would most likely be stolen in her absence. They planned the wedding on the day the Ehdomicfarta was finished cooking. If the groom was pleased with the pastry presented to him then he would kiss the bride. If he wasn’t, then she would be shunned from the civilization. This food played a essential role in these people’s lives and some skeletal remains showed that some women died while trying to desperately finish their wedding pastry.
