http://www.godecookery.com/godeboke/godeboke.htm I'd be interested to hear what kind of results people get from these recipes. Here's an example: ----- Makerouns Take and make a thynne foyle of dowh, and kerue it on pieces, and cast hym on boiling water & seeth it wele. Take chese and grate it, and butter imelte, cast bynethen and abouven as losyns; and serue forth. ----- If it's not obvious, don't worry - there are English translations. ----- Macaroni Take a piece of thin pastry dough and cut it in pieces, place in boiling water and cook. Take grated cheese, melted butter, and arrange in layers like lasagna; serve. ----- Sound familiar? Each recipe also comes with a full-details version as well. Staying on the topic of historical cookery, I recently bought a massive, encyclopedia-thick Victorian cookbook. I'll be trying out some of the recipes and posting my results here soon. (I wish I had a lot more time; the entire thing deserves to be on the Web.) -- Earle Martin hex on irc.perl.org http://purl.oclc.org/net/EarleMartin
