What do we know about medieval cuisine? Fantasy paints vivid pictures: whole roasted carcasses of wild boars and deer are served in castles, elegant lords and ladies sit in Gothic halls, and wine as red as blood is spilled from their goblets onto the tablecloth. On the contrary, succumbing to the influence of stereotypes and costumed historical dramas, we often imagine the life of ordinary people as a series of very sad scenes. Poor peasants chew dry flatbreads or moldy bread, beggars crowd around the church, begging for at least a crust from the fat prelate, and miserable scruffy people in the castle kitchen turn a spit with deer, almost dying of hunger... But what was the culture of cooking and eating food in the Middle Ages? centuries really? After reading the book, you will find out: - whether medieval cuisine was rough and monotonous; - whether spices were really used to take away the taste of rotten meat; - is it true that sugar and salt were incredibly expensive; - is it possible to cook delicious food today? dishes according to medieval recipes. You can check the last point yourself - in the book you will find adapted recipes for dishes straight from the Middle Ages from historical culinary reenactors. The publishing design is preserved in PDF A4 format.
