Gastronomie eskho stedovku – Co lid jedli a pili, jak stolovali a hodovali ern-Feyfrlkov Monika (2024)

Forget the clich of barbaric, boisterous medieval feasts where bones are thrown over the shoulders to dogs. The cuisine of the medieval elite is highly refined, featuring ingenious recipes that use luxurious ingredients we are laboriously rediscovering today, including almond milk, rice flour, hemp oil and exotic, now-forgotten spices. With this Czech-language cookbook, you can prepare some of these more luxurious dishes at home. It also reveals what lay behind the success of medieval master cooks and how banquets were held at the most prestigious royal courts. The book contains many new, previously unpublished recipes, a wealth of photographs, detailed explanations of traditional ingredients and new archaeological findings that clarify or even change our ideas about medieval life. Rediscover the fascinating flavours of the past.
