How to Cook a Golden Peacock
ISBN: 9781500460884 / Angielski / Miękka / 66 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This brief medieval cookbook was found centuries after the Viandier, the most famous of the French medieval cookbooks.

Its author was unknown, though he was certainly a professional cook. The foods described include simple fare like beef and pork and more exotic foods like peacock, swan and lamprey; sauces like cameline (cinnamon) are also mentioned along the way. This new translation...

ISBN: 9781442227385 / Angielski / Twarda / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The infant city called The Clearing was a bald patch amid a stuttering wood. The Clearing was no booming metropolis; no destination for gastrotourists; no career-changer for ardent chefs -- just awkward, palsied steps toward Victorian gentility. In the decades before the remaining trees were scraped from the landscape, Portland's wood was still a verdant breadbasket, overflowing with huckleberries and chanterelles, venison leaping on cloven hoof. Today, Portland is seen as a quaint village populated by trust fund wunderkinds who run food carts each serving something more precious than the...
