We Cooked an Authentic Tudor Feast!

From the creator

We Cooked an Authentic Tudor Feast!' It's nearly Christmas time, and Luke Tomes and Louee Dessent are donning their chef's aprons at the Weald and Downland Living Museum in Sussex, to cook a Christmas classic - Tudor style. On the menu is an authentic Tudor mince pie, the kind King Henry VIII and Elizabeth I would have eaten, filled with real shredded meat, dried fruit and an array of exotic spices that would have been used in the 16th century. In charge of the Tudor kitchen, designed and decorated as a kitchen would have been in the 1570s, is food historian and faithful re-creator of historic dishes Alex Compiani from The Time Traveller's Kitchen. Dressed in Tudor chef attire, Alex tests Luke and Louee's 16th century culinary skills as they attempt to rustle up a Tudor masterpiece.
