British Food Of The Renaissance Was Fairly Bland and Boring. Meals were generally boiled with little more than salt as a seasoning. THANK GOD for Africa, Asia and the Middle East who grew so many of the spices we still use today !!! Venison and other Wild Game were certainly common, as were recipes for LARD PIES, a delicacy and quite a treat (Yuck), of the day. The following MENU Items are just Suggestions,should you decide to have a 21st Century Renaissance or Medieval Style Party.
