Eve has researched recipes from Medieval times to the 1950s (she doesn’t need to research later ones as she remembers those!) and is fascinated by the relationship between food fashions, changes in society and the wider history of the time. She has a passion for spices that were used in the past. She is a superb cook as shown by her waistline (never trust a slim cook!).

She can produce presentations on food and society with examples of typical recipes from the time. Unfortunately, she has not yet taken any H. & S. courses, so is unable to cater for the public but is happy to provide recipes that can be reproduced by the site’s own catering staff or be taken for the public to have a go at home.
