Currently in print, The Medieval Cookbook by Maggie Black, Pleyn Delight
by Haitt(?).

Often available through the library, To the King's Taste and To the
Queen's Taste by Lorna Sass and Sallets, Humbles, and Shrewsbery Cakes
by Ruth Ann Beebe.

These are good selections for starting into period cooking.
