Culinary Recipes of Medieval England Hieatt Constance B.
- An epitomy of all surviving English medieval recipes - The great advantage for students of medieval English cookery is that there is an identifiable corpus of evidence in the manuscripts that have survived to the present day. The beauty of this book is that it addresses the corpus as a whole and abstracts from it paradigm recipes for every medieval dish that we know about. Although there may be some new discoveries, in general terms the corpus is relatively stable.
For each dish the editor has chosen what is in her view the most typical example and, citing the source, translates the original The book is organised by category of dish (Pottage; Meat Dishes; Poultry and Game Birds; Fish; Eggs and Dairy Dishes; Sauces and Condiments, and Baked Dishes).
