[Sca-cooks] "Tasting the Past"

[Terri Morgan]

Did we have a discussion about the book, "Tasting the Past, recipes from the
stone age to the Present" by Jacqui Wood on the List? I can't find any
reference to it.

I've been enjoying looking over the selection of recipes (and she included a
quote by Pliny describing yeast-breads eaten by the natives of Gaul & Spain,
so that made me happy). But I'd like to know what other folks more learned
than I think of the book.
