This book explores views of the natural world in the late Middle Ages, especially as expressed in Livre de chasse (Book of the Hunt), the most influential hunting book of the era. It shows that killing and maiming, suffering and the death of animals were not insignificant topics to late medieval men, but constituted a complex set of issues, and could provoke very contradictory thoughts and feelings that varied according social and cultural milieus and particular cases and circumstances.

The Medieval Kitchen reveals a world in which food was central to daily life, status and belief. From lavish banquets scented with exotic spices to humble meals of bread, greens and porridge, Hannele Klemettilä paints a vivid picture of how people across Western Europe and Scandinavia prepared, transported and enjoyed food. Richly illustrated and grounded in original sources, the book unveils the surprising sophistication of medieval cooking and dispels long-standing myths about what people ate and why. With more than sixty authentic recipes adapted for the modern kitchen – from hippocras to rose pudding – it offers readers a tangible connection to a bygone era. This is both an inviting culinary guide and a revealing study of how food shaped medieval culture.

Contrary to what is often believed, good food was valued highly in the Middle Ages – the fragrance of exotic spices filled the air, meat turned on the spit and fish was consumed in abundance for religious reasons. The wealthy made a show of their prosperity by serving peacock or wild boar at banquets, while the poor ate vegetables, porridge and bread. Fresh and preserved fish, meat, fruit and vegetables were transported great distances to grace dining tables across Europe.In The Medieval Kitchen, Hannele Klemettilä presents a richly illustrated history of medieval food and cookery in Western Europe and Scandinavia. The book is also a practicable cookbook, with a collection of more than 60 originally sourced recipes that can easily be prepared in today’s modern home. Hippocras, roasted veal paupiettes with bacon and herbs, and rose pudding tempt with the beguiling flavours of a bygone era.The Medieval Kitchen corrects many common misconceptions about the food of the Middle Ages, and acquaints the reader with the food culture, customs and ideologies associated with eating in medieval times. The text is accompanied by many fine paintings and drawings, which help to evoke the atmosphere in the dining rooms and kitchens of both rich and poor some 600 years ago.
