Title: The medieval kitchen
First published: 1998
Description: More than a cookbook, The Medieval Kitchen vividly depicts the context and tradition of authentic medieval cookery. Culture and cuisine here become thoroughly entwined, informing and transforming one another.

Etiquette at table and the aesthetics of the meal, the seasonal variations evidenced in feast days and fast days, the foods of the city and the country, the diets of the rich and the poor, and the ingenious methods and techniques employed in medieval culinary arts - all this is brought to scholarly light and generously proffered for our hearty consumption.
