I have a few Remnaissance recipes combining meat with onions or garlic, but 
from the way much is made of 'smell-breath peasants' eating 'cabbage, 
onions and leeks' in medieval literrature I suspect that would have been 
somewhat infra dig. 

Rumpoldt's 'Goose on Onions' is still too good to pass up, though.
