Quote:
A kitchen, if used properly, can become a time machine.
Ottawa-based writer Michelle Enzinas is working on a 16th-century cookbook. Set to be released in 2016, it will be an “experimental archaeological study” of The Annotated Henry Butte’s Dry Dinner, published in 1599.
In Enzinas’ hands, modern chefs will be able to travel back in time and prepare recipes that are more than 400 years old. Her work, however, will be much more than a simple collection of cooking tips. Using her own research, she also plans to write about the fauna and flora of the era, medieval cooking technologies and additional recipes from some of Butte’s contemporaries.
