Good luck with it! Let me know if you get stuck and maybe I can help. I have
a large medieval recipe collection and could help with specific foods if you
need.

Often the best place to look is in books about various historic foods

and
cooking methods. I've found some good resources for receipts from

medieval
feasts in this way. You want to make sure you look through the end notes

for
things like house receipts, etc.. Of course you can always go online to

look
up historic foods of whatever era/location. For good medieval info look

at
A
Boke of Gode Cookery web site...

www.godecookery.com/godeboke/godeboke.htm

There is a link for the web ring from there too that may help.

good luck!

Can anyone give me some sources for historic feast menus? I'm

interested
in
the quantities of food, number of courses, amounts of alcohol offered,

etc.
