1/12th Scale Tudor Food
Tudor Food Dating from the 15th Century.
Almost all our tudor food across the range of prepared
and kitchen food is what would have been served in a
manor house, prosperous farm or merchants home for
family and servants.All the food in the Manor house and farm would
have been produced on the estate with only the exotic
foods like the citrus fruits, (oranges and lemons) vine
fruits (currants and 'raisins of the sun'), spices such as
pepper, nutmeg, cubebs, galingale, ginger , mace, almonds
and wine brought in. The town kitchens of a Merchants
house would have to buy in all their food, having no estate
to call on, their meat and vegetables, cloth and many other
supplies would be bought at the daily town markets. Most
town houses had a small plot behind which was used to
grow herbs and maybe keep a hive of bees for the honey
and wax.
