Maybe a little more information would be in order.

So, how do you see this list helping you? (I'm sure it can, I'm just
wondering where people might start...) For example, do you live in an
area that only does camping events, are you mostly interested in
open-fire cookery, or are you more likely to end up in a
food-service-type kitchen? Are you interested in cooking for SCA events,
or just doing period food on your own on a smaller scale? Both can be
useful ways to learn about different aspects of period cookery.

Does your persona have a role in your culinary interests?

One of the advantages on a list like this one is that there are so many
different viewpoints and styles of playing the SCA game. Some people on
the list don't play with the SCA at all; our common interest is mostly
in historical cookery.

Okay, your move ;  )
