Well, the following is from this file in the FOOD-BOOKS section of the
Florilegium:
cookbooks-bib (40K) 6/ 9/01 Cookbook bib. by Mistress Jaelle of
Armida.
>>>>>
Mckendry, Maxime. SEVEN HUNDRED YEARS OF ENGLISH COOKING. Exter Books.
1793. NOTE: this has been published under a number of different names
and with at least one other author! Most, but not all of the recipes
include the period source as well as the modern redaction. Some of the
redactions are flawed in as much as they use non-period ingredients.
RECOMMENDED only if you can't find something better - but be VERY
cautious when using the redactions.
