Newe Booke of Cokerye |
| |
The original of A Proper
Newe Booke of Cokerye is in the Parker Library of
Corpus Christi College, and was donated by Matthew Parker, the
fourteenth Master, who later became Archbishop of
Canterbury. The book is thought to have been used by his
wife Margaret.
Anne Ahmed, the wife of the present Master, has prepared
this new edition of the book for the 650th anniversary
celebrations of the College.
The original recipes are presented in facsimile
alongside an interpretation. Updated versions of some of
these recipes are included to encourage readers to try
for themselves Margaret Parker's dishes from a bygone
age.
This hardback book of 112 pages is delightfully
illustrated and includes a brief introduction to the
life and times of Matthew and Margaret Parker. |
