It occurred to me that the intro to the descriptions
of the books might be of help- besides, the person who
wrote the article ought to be given credit- my
apologies, Jaelle, if you're still on the List ;-)

MEDIEVAL COOKBOOKS - AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY

This is an annotated bibliography of books I own that
deal with medieval
food or foodways.  It does not claim to be a complete
listing of all that
it out there, but rather a start.

As a safe rule of thumb, any cookbook which gives
modern redactions but
NOT the original is probably not worth much.  Even
when the original is
giving look at the redaction carefully. Why did the
author make the
decisions he did when redacting the recipe.

Never a horse that cain't be rode,
And never a rider who cain't be throwed....
