And I thought the comment had been made that the article never supposed to be
purporting to offer "period" recipes but "medievaloid" recipes that could be
cooked in the style of "period" dishes. Someone had said the article was
accurate on styles of cooking, etc., but for modern palates, gave a series of
recipes using modern ingredients.
Or did I get that wrong? If I'm correct in how the thread has gone, then how
can one be upset with an article for not offering "period" recipes when it
states out front it has no intention of doing so? I understand that we
**all** have difficulty with misrepresented and misinformed facts stated to
be documentation, especially in a published format, but it would be unfounded
in the instance at hand.
