THE MIDDLE AGES - FABIAN MÜLLERS - HISTORICAL COOKING

In this book, many culinary manuscripts and cookbooks from the Middle Ages have been explored. In addition to the famous Mesnagier de Paris or other Viandier de Taillevent, the author wished to bring to the attention of the public other works not or little known to the general public. We thus discover recipes intended for Pope Martin V of Rome taken from the Registrum Coquine, a 15th century Receiver or the Durham Manuscript, dating from the 12th century and thus dethroning the Sion Manuscript as the oldest recipe book of the Middle Ages, in French. All the recipes, cooked and beautifully staged in facsimiles of medieval dishes, are offered according to the author's interpretation.
