This reminds me, since I've recently been using dill to season various
things, I was wondering about this. Is dill mentioned as a period herb/spice 
in any of the period cooking recipes we have? I imagine it does grow in 
Europe. I would think it would be used like mustard seed. Not in fancy 
feasts, since it would be local and not imported, but perhaps there is 
mention of it. Perhaps in Le Menegier(sp?) ?
