Kitchens, Cooking, and Eating in Medieval Italy - Hardcover
by Katherine A. McIver (Author)
The foods people catch, cook, and eat often tell us a great deal about a society during a given time period. By examining both the tools and methods of the kitchen as well as the menus and mores of those eating the products, Katherine McIver offers an historical glimpse into the medieval Italian kitchen.
