The author of Victorian Christmas ârecounts some of the most fascinatingâand disgustingâdishes our ancestors used to eat. . . . A must-buy book for foodiesâ (Fiona Shoop, author of How to Deal in Antiques).  With peopleâs fascination for food increasing, there are more cooking shows and magazines than ever. Medieval banquets are sold-out events and classic recipes and ingredients are back in fashion, which is what this book sets out to explore.  Highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of each era from Roman times onwards, Anna Selby recreates classic recipes from Epicuriusâs stuffed dormice to recipes that readers really will want to recreate. She explores how trade and improved transportation increased foodstuffs available and reflects on how weâre returning to the old-fashioned notion of seasonal foodsâjust like our ancestors had to do.  |
