Favorite foods from the time of Henry VIII . . .

In case all this chat about bygone days of Henry VIII and company has stirred a culinary interest, there is a neat link that takes some of the recipes of that time and puts them within the possibility of accomplishment by the modern day cook. Even if you don't go for taking 'chances' in the kitchen, it is an interesting read about Medieval cooking.
