[Sca-cooks] Culinary Manuscript Digitized

[Elise Fleming]

Oh, wow! The British Museum has just digitized the medieval cookery 
manuscript, Forme of Curye. This was a series of recipes from the cooks 
of Richard II (c. 1390). By zooming in on the photos, anyone familiar 
with the recipes can actually read them! The manuscript appears to be in 
a scroll form - long, narrow strips that are sewn together. Have a go at 
the recipes! http://www.bl.uk/manuscripts/FullDisplay.aspx

Hope the link works!
