I'm curious. So which medieval cookbook would you recommend "Fabulous 
Feasts" ahead of?

Actually, from discussions here and from glancing through my copy, I 
think the first half of the book is not that bad. It seems that the 
recipes in "Fabulous Feasts" are the thing that most folks have a 
problem with.
