Medieval Food
Introduction
The food of the Medieval Period is very different
from the food we have today, as the people of the time had different eating
habits and preferences. Often, the medieval dishes are not perceived highly
due to the unfavorable circumstances of the time they were invented. The
cooks of the time were forced to create dishes with the limited resources.
Only a poor selection of ingredients and spices were available, hampering
the variety of the food as a result. In addition, the methods of cooking
were restricted by the basic cookery and tools used, causing the low quality
of the food. In general, the dishes of the medieval period is unacceptable
by today's standards and require modification in order for them to be enjoyable.
