[Sca-cooks] "The Medieval Kitchen"

[Stefan li Rous]

Hrothny asked:

<<< A friend showed me her copy of "The Medieval Kitchen" at our  
business
meeting this evening. I *think* I remember it being discussed here  
but can't
find any mention of it in the archives using "The Medieval Kitchen"  
in the
search function. >>>

I would have expected quite a number of hits on that. I got quite a  
number when I plugged that into the search engine in the Florilegium.  
Unfortunately, I'm several years behind in editing, and paring down,  
my stuff for the cookbooks-msg but I remember a number of comments  
here that I saved to add to that file.

In the meantime, here is what Mistress Jaelle had to say in this file:

  cookbooks-bib     (44K)  2/15/04    Cookbook bib. by Mistress  
Jaelle of Armida.

------
Redon, Odile, Sabban, Francoise, & Serventi, Silvano.  THE MEDIEVAL  
KITCHEN. RECIPES FROM FRANCE AND ITALY. The University of Chicago  
Press. 1998. A good book with 14th and 15th century recipes, both in  
translation and redacted. Good information about food and cooking of  
the time. RECOMMENDED.
------

I think this book may be out of print since I remember picking up one  
or two copies as remainders.
