If you want to really explore more historic
English food
Take a 1000 Eggs
or More by Cindy Renfrow is the book for you. This collection
of recipes, from several manuscripts from the early to mid 1400’s,
is easy to use and very well presented. Ms. Renfrow tells us that
“Volume 1 contains almost 100 translated recipes which have
been adapted for modern cookery. Volume two contains nearly 300
translated recipes that have not been modernized.” Plenty of
material to keep any cook busy for several years. |

Another more general topic historic cook book
is Maggie Black’s
The Medieval
Cookbook . This book includes easy to prepare recipes,
beautiful illustrations and lots of historical references. A great
gift for the budding medieval cook or the cook who has everything.
