About “Le Viandier”
Le Viandier is a medieval cookbook that is generally attributed to Guillaume Tirel, also known as Taillevent. However, the earliest version of the text was written around 1300, more than a decade before Tirel was born. The original author remains unknown. It was common during the medieval period for recipe collections to be copied, expanded, and then presented as the work of more famous or later authors. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
