In Red Sails to Capri by Ann Weil, Michele's Maman cooked perfect soft boiled eggs with a special song. Someone else brought up the setting where food was timed by differing versions of a story told. Related ideas though.<br /><br />I'll be sure to check out that recipe site. It sounds neat.Jaleh Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04942272578488986874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6320269312957801390.post-20638380426770552882012-02-22T09:46:30.411-08:002012-02-22T09:46:30.411-08:00If you search "Megan Hutchins," my pictu...If you search "Megan Hutchins," my picture is the same on twitter. I think this URL would also take you to my Google+ page: https://plus.google.com/u/0/101126194429340167636/posts . Those recipes sound great!

I have some great medieval recipes myself - pheasant stuffed with oats, figs, dried apples, rosemary and white wine; tansy cakes; parsley bread (which has rosemary, parsley, honey, and cinnamon!). I'll have to go check out the site!Juliette Wadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02879627074920760712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6320269312957801390.post-22521719553150594142012-02-21T21:36:50.122-08:002012-02-21T21:36:50.122-08:00I adore this topic and wish I could have been ther...I adore this topic and wish I could have been there. I'd go on too long if I let myself, so I'll just chip in on the medieval Europe part. A lot of "medieval" food in fiction isn't very medieval. Often these dishes are very foreign to the modern palette (like dessert made from hard-boiled egg yolks or featuring black pepper). Almond milk is also very common in recipes, as cow's milk spoiled quickly. A great resource for anyone looking to do some medieval cooking is: http://www.godecookery.com/<br /><br />The medieval gingerbread is especially easy and fun to make...but nothing like modern gingerbread.<br /><br />Thanks, as always, for typing these up!MKHutchinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07715686902529938959noreply@blogger.com
