Normally, I could offer you some, but I've had workmen in the house and
with more to come they are all safely packed away in boxes - somewhere.

This website has links to many, many sources of information about
medieval and renaissance cooking:

You can find a good selection of recipes at:

Each recipe provides the original medieval text, a translation into
modern English, and cooking instructions.
