I think this book is great, having a fond interest in Culinary history (Especially ancient), this book filled the spot as an introduction to expand into the medieval era. With some wonderful recipes translated and the inclusion original recipe in original form, makes interesting reading to see the comparison of the english language from then until now for anyone with a passing interest in languages. With 7 chapters of recipes and 1 chapter of 'remedies', each chapter begins a different view on cooking and includes a good introduction to each chapter, from Doomsday to the cookery monks and nuns did, the later middle ages, and christmas cookery. Whilst most of the recipes would be easily made, some of them would require ... Read More: >>More Details |

In many ways this is a good book, giving recipes redacted for modern use and some interesting information. Unfortunately Ms Black does not merely turn recipes into modern language, she adapts them leaving out difficult to find ingredients and adding modern ingredients such as tomatoes which were unknown in medieval times, and even worse does not point out where she has done this. For someone new to historical food the book is therefore seriously flawed, and to someone who already has some knowledge it does not give anything useful since the information is suspect.

This is a lovely and shortish introduction to cooking and culture of eating and entertaining for the late Georgian period when Austen was alive. I loved the fact that this was about cooking and eating rather than some of the less universally approachable subjects (letters, literary criticism). Maggie Black and Deidre Le Faye have both written Jane Austen style and culture type books before so both understand the period and are able to draw on a large resource of appropriate information. The introduction is very much about how people ate - what was available, how it got to houses, and why this was so. There is some division by class (upper class, middle class and lower class are all discussed) but also the divisions by Geography - whether ... Read More: >>More Details |
