[Kirsten Houseknecht]

the Madrone Culinary Guild did a feast based on Chaucer's Canterbury
tales... so i dont see why it couldnt be done.

have you checked Chaucer?

> After along break from the list (try catching up on 5000 cooks list
posts....), I come out of hiding (I am a very occasional poster here) and I
have question for the adventurous.
>
> I have begun the research for a feast idea that popped into my head after
reading a welsh cookbook that basically documented food the welsh might have
eaten in period by going back to poems and stories. As I am cooking a feast
at a hunt themed event, I am looking to "cross document" my dishes with
anecdotal evidence found in stories and poems taht have a traveling or
hunting theme or as close as you can get.
>
> If anyone knows of stories and/or poems that mention things such as Haslet
and other yummy hunt type foods...please forward to me and I will promise to
send copies of the recipes after it (the feast or menu prep) is done...
>
> I have most of my sotelties documented...sugar plate and marzipan figures
and tartlet castles...with meat filling no less...(stories love to talk
aboutt the cool things...)
>
> So think back to your favorite stories and poems that mention food and
send them my way!

> Thanks in advance!
