Greetings...
I have been able to cook an entire period feast and it was tasted
wonderful as well. (return of empty serving platters is a good sign). I
would recommend starting off with a reputable period cookbook. Try
Pleyn Delit. If you don't have a copy or access to one, email me
privately and I will gladly send you some recipes. One recommendation,
I would start with a simple roasted meat or chicken, make some sauces, a
vegetable (armoured turnips are wonderful, especially with LOTS of
cheese), breads, butter, rice dish, and a soup (simple onion soup is
great). An apple sauce or some other confection for dessert can be
wonderful. Just some ideas!!!
In service,
Meadhbh
