Step into the kitchens, halls, taverns, and fields of medieval England through this immersive blend of history and cookbook. A Taste of the Past invites you to explore the culinary lives of kings and commoners, knights and nuns, merchants and peasants, each brought to life through meticulously researched recipes and vivid historical context. From spiced venison roasts served at royal feasts to herb-scented pottages from peasant hearths, you'll find over 100 recipes, many translated directly from Middle English manuscripts, and adapted for the modern kitchen. Rich with historical notes, cultural insights, and chef's tips, this book explores the roles of food in identity, ritual, hospitality, and survival. Whether you're a historian, reenactor, chef, or curious reader, this is more than a cookbook, it's a journey into a lost world, one simmering with flavor, class, and custom.
