Richard II Porpoise Recipe Online 1
If you've ever wanted to get medieval on your asparagus, now's your chance. The Forme of Cury, a cookbook compiled by master cooks to Richard II, has gone online. Hundreds of dishes are explained, ranging from a porpoise recipe to directions for blancmange. John Hodgson, keeper of manuscripts at John Rylands Library, says "It's not a like a modern cookery book so it doesn't give you exact quantities and times. It's very much suck it and see, but great for experimenting."
