Liber de Coquina - The Book of Good Cooking
Liber de Coquina - The Book of Good Cooking
The "Liber de Coquina" was created around 1300 and is one of the first medieval cookbooks we know of. It consists of two parts, probably authored by a French and an Italian author respectively, but was already compiled into a single work back then. In particular, the second part offers some premieres in European cuisine: for the first time, marjoram and rosemary are used as spices and lemon and bitter orange juice are used as substitutes for vinegar. There are two recipes for an early form of mortadella, instructions on how to make ravioli, and a description of how to prepare a type of marzipan mixture. For those who want to try their hand at medieval cooking, some suggestions for reproducing the recipes are included. Of course, an extensive glossary of terms is also provided.
