| This is a quite funny and interesting
read if you're into medieval fairy tales :-) The recipes themselves are
quite good. These are some of my favourites, easy to prepare and very,
very tasty! I have added my own observations and ideas in parentheses
throughout the texts.
Recipes from "The Kitchens of Castle Gillywick, Willihilda The
Kitchen Wench" by Lady Therica Pembroke of Stonegate Manor (Ann

| Orirginal medieval recipe from
"Le Menagier de Paris" Mushrooms of one night are the best, if they are small, red inside and closed at the top. And they should be peeled and then washed in hot water and parboiled, and if you wish to put them in a pastry, add oil, cheese and spice powder. Original medieval recipe for the pastry crust from "The closet of the Eminently Learned Sir Kenelme Digbie Kt. Opened". Pastry Filling Saute mushrooms and onions until soft. Add the spices and flour and
saute for another 2 minutes. Add the sour cream and cool slightly. |
