Couple of links

What to bring to the potluck if you don't cook:

A nice little handout, if a little heavy on the godecookery.com site (the contributory nature of that site makes it... difficult). Of course I think I could do better, and of course I haven't. :)

Intro to medieval food: http://www.advancenet.net/jscole/introfoodclass.pdf

A great sauces handout: http://medievalcuisine.madpage.com/classes/Sauces_Handout.pdf
with charts and humors and everything!

My much less impressive sauces handout:

NOT EDIBLE:

Perfectly preserved 300 year old broom found in monk latrine:

Unless, of course, you're a donkey... but I suppose even donkeys might back off that one! :)
Interesting post in all points. Thanks.

Ooooooh, shiny! Do mind if I share these links with my local group? We're planning a pot luck at this weekend's championship event and I'm trying to encourage people to attempt to bring something more period.

And I can just imagine the conversation that took place when that broom was dropped down the privy. :)

Sure! Go ahead. If you think it would be helpful, you can also point them to the foods and recipes sections of the dayboards handout:

Oooooh, I'm over west in AnTir, but I've been fasinated with the concept of day boards for a few years now, we don't have anything like it over here.

You give yourself too little credit, O Most Excellent Mistress of Mustard.
But thanks for sharing the links!
