The second edition of Pleyn Delit contains less errors than the first and The 
Medieval Kitchen contains less errors than some others. Cindy Renfrow's book 
Take a Thousand Eggs contains even less but I would suggest that if you could 
only have 2 medieval cook books in your kitchen that you purchase Coraiadoc's 
Collection of Medieval and Renaissance Cookbooks, Vol. I and II instead of 
any of the modern cookbooks containing period recipes suggestions. His 
volumes with give a dozen plus actual medieval or SCA period cookbooks at a 
total cost of less than 1 of any of the other books.
