Huette suggested to Christianna:
<<< I suppose that you then should serve foods that are considered to be an aphrodesiac. IIRC artichokes were considered so. And also asperagas. >>>
I don't know if what was considered an aphrodesiac changed from the Middle Ages to the 19th Century, but perhaps this Florilegium file might of interest to Christianna, or perhaps others.
