The kitchen really is...

... the center of my world. Whether I'm baking bread, making a delicious meal, or relaxing over a cup of tea, it's where my heart is. It's where my soul is most at peace. I love the meditation time that kneading bread brings, and the happiness that I see on the faces of those who eat my foods.

This website is a repository of recipes that I've tried, and that I want to try. You'll find internal links that lead to recipes with my own commentary (like my Buran recipe) about how they turned out. There are also external links to recipes I haven't yet tried, but that are on the list of things I want to make at some point. Each recipe will contain information about what era it comes from, as well as a bit of history associated with it. 

I hope you enjoy your time in my kitchen. Pull up a stool, grab a mug of tea or broth, and come chat!

To boil Fowls and Cabbage

August 11, 2025 - So many events, and so much cooking! If you haven't heard, I'm now teaching baking classes at the Fort at No. 4, so keep an eye on their calendar and sign up if you'd like to bake in the big beehive oven! Check out my author site (link below) for events I'll be presenting at. If you can, come say hi!

If you have come here because you read my cookbook (The Re-Enactor's Cookbook), welcome! You'll find an odd assortment of recipes here, some historical and others not. Recipes are added on an irregular basis, and include general medieval dishes, 18th Century American colonial recipes, and some of my own modern ones. I hope you enjoy your stay! You can find my author site here: http://mallysonszabo.com - Thanks for dropping by!
