[SCA-AE] Fantastic Historical Food Site

[Ruth Morrisson]

Greetings from Myfanwy!
I looked at the description they posted of their medieval feast, and I'd really like 
to see their sources/redactions.  Because they said in the article that they used 
their own farm market garden, and underneath the article they had pictures of 
potatoes and tomatoes (as well as what I understand to be non-period orange 
carrots).  So I'm naturally a bit skeptical.
OTOH, there is a really great site I found awhile back that has facsimiles and 
transcriptions/translations of actual texts, for a bunch of different cultures [URL: http://www.medievalcookery.com/etexts.html].  It includes the translation and 
transcription that a friend of mine in the East Kingdom, Mistress Caterina von 
Sichling (mka Alia Atlas) did a number of years ago of _Von Gute Spise_, so it's 
definitely an SCA friendly site.
