  1. I showed this to my father who was a history professor, he loved it โคโคโคโคโค

  2. Fantastic educational channel ๐Ÿ‘ enjoyed cooking with a great deal of history. Boun lavoro!

  3. I'm going to respectfully disagree with you on this, fish cakes are usually to make subpar fish go further, so wouldn't make more sense, especially in the mediaeval era to use a dried, smoked or salted fish (that would also make more sense of the mediaeval instructions to soak and boil it first).

    And on a non historical note, and purely on a culinary one, it seems like a waste of fresh high quality fresh fish to make them into fish cakes instead of lightly frying or poaching them.

    It is rare that I disagree with you on the things, because I like your channel, your history is very good and you're cooking is usually fantastic; but I disagree with you on this one.
