Exactly. And we have no way of knowing if any 'new dishes' we create were 
ever created or served in the middle ages. Your position is not untenable 
when applied to informal cookery. However, it simply does not appear to be a 
solid position when applied to formal cookery. Formal cookery is what we have 
records of.

Without a solid knowledge of humoral theory, such substitutions as you 
propose outside the Corpus simply cannot be proven as being done. You seem to 
assume a high degree personal freedom existed during the middle ages, 
especially among the Guilds, which in reality was unknown.
