In _The Heritage of
>Spanish Cooking_, which is one of those heavily-illustrated coffeetable
>cookbooks, I found a painting by Velazquez.  "Old Woman Cooking
>Eggs" was painted circa 1618 (19 years after Granado's cookbook was
>published). http://sunsite.auc.dk/cgfa/velazque/p-velazq39.htm

And isn't that a nifty portable looking chafing dish thing the egg cooking 
pot is sitting upon?  Let's all add that to our dream medieval  kitchen 
descriptions!
