One way to cook easily over the fire, although not exactly medieval
is to precook your dishes at home, use one of thee methods to
preserve the food and then reheat them over the fire or camp stove.

For some recipes and info on cooking over a camp fire, perhaps these
files might be of use:

<<< I'm going to use fontina, and I'm pretty happy with that choice
because I
can date it back to the 1200s in the mountains northwest of Venice
(unless one of you more learned folks thinks I'm whacked). >>>
You can find the dates for many cheeses in this file, although I
don't remember fontina being mentioned:
