This is a Medieval Banquet we did for David Dimbleby’s BBC documentary ‘How We Built Britain’. HistoricalFoods.com is the research branch of Apex Catring and together we have produced many authentic feasts from history for TV and Film productions. Whatever the theme, whatever the period in British history, we can recreate any feast or dish. On HistoricalFoods.com you can find out more about the forgotten secrets of British recipes and the skills that were once used in their making, carving and serving. There is an extraordinary legacy of British food to be found in our history, and although there are dishes which are not suitable for modern tastes, the full British culinary tradition is a treasure store of food and recipe gems, most of them now forgotten. Here at HistoricalFoods.com we aim to unearth these gems and bring them back into our lives.
