Anglo-Saxon society has in recent years proceeded by leaps and bounds in its appreciation and adoption of foreign cuisines, and the more exotic the better. By contrast the long but much-maligned tradition of English cookery--which, to most people, including the Anglo-Saxons themselves, consists mainly of steak and kidney pie, roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, fish and chips, lamb and mint sauce, tripe and onions, and suet pudding--has been largely ignored, or at best dismissed as too bland. This book is a triumphant vindication of 7 centuries of English gastronomy. It corrects the commonplace conception of what the English culinary tradition represents.

The recipes are divided into 5 chronological sections, each section preceded by an introduction which gives an account of the fashions and changes in the food and drink of the period.
