I've heard this particular complaint, small kitchen/small budget, several
times now.  I know I try some recipes as part of my regular meals and I know
some other people on the list do the same.  So, my question is, "What
Medieval or Renaissance recipes can we recommend where the ingredients would
be part of a normal grocery purchase, where the dish would fit into a modern
family meal, and which can be prepared with limited untensils and facilities
in a timely manner."

My vision for this question is that the information put forward will become
a section of Stefan's Florilegium aimmed at the beginning historical cook
and will provide ready material for any of us who are called upon to teach a
basic medieval cooking class.
