Description

A colourful cookbook with a selection of eighty recipes drawn from medieval sources and adapted for the modern cook. Extensively illustrated with scenes from medieval life, the dishes reflect the food eaten by many branches of society. An introduction describes contemporary eating habits and customs for the clergy and large households, whilst the book ends with a section on medicinal herbs and medicines.
