[Sca-cooks] Fabulous Feasts

[Johnna Holloway]

You could have them start with Pleyn Delit and then move along to Doc's medievalcookery.com. It has adapted recipes, links to cookery books, articles, transcribed cookery books, etc. The Florilegium has numerous articles too. 

Medieval English is a safe place to start. Just depends on where their interests end up being as to what the second sources should be.

>> Just how terrible is this book, Fabulous Feasts? I'm trying to gather up some good books for my students/friends to learn about period cooking and start off in baby steps. Suggestions on inexpensive period cook books that are GOOD would be appreciated.

>> I own a crap ton of books, but other than the specific books with full translations, I'm a little hesitant to suggest books. ::sigh:;
