Swan, You Say? Medieval Feasting!

n the course of researching my Medieval Warriors series set in 11th century England and Scotland, I discovered the diet of the time, when not affected by war, was quite varied. While the plants and animals available changed over the course of the era (5th – 15th centuries), we can say much about what they ate, particularly in the Middle Ages. And yes, swan was on the menu, particularly if you were dining with the king, but more about that later. See more.
