magirus_voorblad_1612.jpgIn September 2007 Davidsfonds Uitgeverij in Louvain published the commented translation in modern Dutch of Koocboec oft familieren keukenboec by Antonius Magirus from 1612 (ISBN 978 90 5826 5005). Jozef Schildermans and Hilde Sels wrote the introduction and comments and modernized several recipes. Marleen Willebrands translated the text of the Koocboec in modern Dutch and modernized the recipe for ‘mattentaart’. The book is titled Lieve schat, wat vind je lekker? Het Koocboec van Antonius Magirus (1612) en de Italiaanse keuken uit de renaissance, which roughly translates to ‘Sweet dear, what do you fancy? The Koocboec by Antonius Magirus and the Italian kitchen from the renaissance’.

Nature morte door Jacob Van Es, Museum Oudheidkunde Kortrijk (copyright Kikirpa.be)On Thursday 5 June I gave a presentation on ‘L’Histoire des livres de recettes en Flandre à l’époque moderne’ during the conference ‘Plateau Gourmand’ in the Musée Municipal d’Hazebrouck in France. The ‘Plateau Gourmand’ conference is part of the exposition ‘Gourmandise’ which takes place from 4 April until 6 Juli in the Musée Départemental de Flandre, temporarily housed in the municipal museum of Hazebrouck in the north of France (the Hôtel de la Noble-Cour in Cassel is undergoing repairs). More information on this exposition, the conference day and other activities you’ll find on the website of the Conseil Général du Nord of France. (Illustratie: ‘Nature morte’ by Jacob Van Es, of of the paintings exhibited.)
