Written for the growing middle classes in Elizabethan England and
published in 1596/97, this is a sophisticated cookery book which
includes many herbal treatments and applications. As a cookery
writer, Thomas Dawson place is firmly between the late medieval
tradition of the fourteen and fifteenth centuries and the more
florid cookery books that came later. Nothing is known about the
patrons for whom he worked or wrote this book for but they must
have come from the growing middle class. This is good food of a
very high order not over-decorated and not too fatty but cooked
simply with an interesting variety of tastes.
