I have poured through numerous cookbooks spanning modern back through the
late 1700s CE. For all intent and purposes, the most widely recommended
advise was to cook until fork tender. 'Tender crisp' is a relatively modern
method of vegetable preparation (one I would like to see go by the wayside
personally :-)), I would venture the opinion that most 'period vegetables
were served fork tender when cooked.
