<<< 3. Curing/ Preservation methods especially for meat. There is a
myth that Medieval English hung out meat to rot before serving. I
believe they misunderstood this as part of a curing/aging technique. >>>
We have had some discussions on curing of meat. Perhaps this
Florilegium file might be of interest:
meat-aging-msg (20K) 1/10/08 The aging of meat to tenderize it in
period and today.

On your topic as a whole, there might be some good references
mentioned in this file:
rotten-meat-msg (50K) 5/19/06 Comments on the "they used spices to
cover the taste of rotten meat" myth.
