- During the fourteenth century the Renaissance started in Italy, and slowly spread throughout Europe. As shown in this episode, the refreshing Renaissance era indicates an intellectual, philosophical, artistic and religious revolution and is mainly influenced by humanism. The objective of this movement to improve humanity also had its effect on the kitchen and dinner table. Strict table manners and consumption of imported vegetables are examples of the many culinary changes discussed in the episode.

"and they where allowed to eat cheese... The result was devastating."
Wow, that escalated quickly....
TDC - The Documentary Channel all that calcium made their skeletons stronger ... a few years later Europe was overrun by the armies of the undead.
Must've been written by a vegan.

Cheese can make you constipated .if you eat too much.
Shannon Miller Anything can do that. It’s more about the persons body not working properly.
Fascinating! Was in beautiful Italy, in Rome, Florence and Genoa many moons ago and had pizza in Genoa the size of English muffins. Also had Fettucini Alfredo at Alfredo's in Rome which is like Sardis in New York famous for celebs. I read a fabulous book, "The History of Desserts" which mentioned the goblets and cutlery made from spun sugar and then they would eat those after the banquets! Must have been a lot of cavities in those days as well due to sugar. Yes, unfortunately, the interrupting ads are annoying! Thanks for sharing.love your great documentaries!
My mother remembers loaf sugar and I lived in Morocco for several years where you can get beautiful cones of loaf sugar or sugar tablets for tea and coffee. The cones are wrapped in beautiful purple paper. The tablets are quite large I brought home a lot of the illegal food things from Morocco and now they've all been used. They weren't illegal but things like sugar and their gray salt for cooking and they don't usually use it on the table but I loved the flavor so much that I had a little saucer with gray salt on it for my food! :-)
Try Murray River pink flake salt, a wonderful finishing salt from Australia. It's a milder, slightly sweet salt. My favourite.
Piloncillo is still sold in cones. you grate what you need off.
Elizabeth Shaw salt is bad for you
@Elizabeth Shaw
Items like salt or sugar aren't contraband or illegal. Most customs authorities worry about invasive species (live animals and plants) or disease-causing microbes. Anyway, these days, I'm sure you can find the products on the internet!
Some salt is not bad for you. You need sodium for The synapses in your brain to work. Look up hyponatremia. My
Mom had it once and was in rehab for six weeks after.
It would be good to see programmes about Chinese, Indian, Persian, Arab etc historic cuisines.
10:37 Is that historian wearing a tiara? I’m not criticizing this decision. I approve.
Mere C I noticed and approved as well instantly. It also made me think I should search for my own medieval tiara.
SUGAR: A lot of people don't seem to understand that the uses of sugar described are from the kitchens and tables of Kings and noblemen. Most people were peasants who COULD NOT AFFORD SUGAR during the Renaissance. It was a very expensive luxury food that was mostly used to show off an aristocrat's wealth. If you listen, you will notice the names of the Kings and nobles are mentioned. Cookbooks were also primarily for the aristocracy and the people who cooked for them. Most peasants were never taught to read and were far to poor to buy books. They were more available, but still expensive, even after the printing press was invented. At the most, a middle class family might have a Bible.
During the Renaissance era, the VAST majority of people were peasants/poor--85-90% of the population--or possibly even more. There was no labor saving equipment to grow food, and most of the population was needed to do it. The "middle classes" were very small until hundreds of years after the Renaissance. In some areas, the nobility is estimated as being as little as 1%, with all the the "middle classes" making up the rest.

Renaissance Literacy Rate: 10-40% among MALES. More in towns. Very few women, except in the nobility, were taught to read. Also, it depends on what is defined as literacy. If you are able to sign your name, but little more, you are not going to be reading books.

It may SEEM strange to someone who lives in modern times, but that is the way it was. It really is a matter of opinion whom you consider to be lower vs middle vs upper class. I really wouldn't consider most prostitutes to be middle class--certainly not street walkers. (Madams and pimps got more money. ) There were a few high class ones, who became mistresses to noblemen, but not many. Most people ate a lot of porridges and stews of mostly grains, beans, vegetables, and a little meat. They could have had some honey, but sugar was very expensive. Only wealthy people got enough sweet stuff to get cavities, lose teeth, develop diabetes, etc.

The literacy rate for the Netherlands seems to have been higher than other parts of Europe. You didn't mention that country before in particular. All of the information available is based more upon estimates, because not so many countries were concerned about collecting such detailed statistics at that point in time. Some cultures value education--and record keeping--more than others. Actually, your diet is BETTER if you do NOT have sugar. NOT being able to afford to buy it is an advantage. Humans can do quite well on quite a variety of diets as long as they get enough vitamins, high quality protein, and essential fatty acids. Sugar and processed foods have been the culprit causing a lot of suffering.

we know. reading and writing doesn't become common until during the industrial revolution.
I love these documentaries thank you for posting them.
The event they're describing, was known as the St Batholomew's Day Massacre; some of my ancestors were Huguenots (French Protestants) from Lorraine, & they fled to England around this time- I only learnt of this heritage a year ago - it's remarkable, & I like how this doco is exploding old ideas of vegetables being basically non-existant, or merely 'peasant food'.
OcarinaSapph1r3 -24 : mine too. My Huguenot ancestors fled to South Africa.
well in medieval times yes it was a peasant food, only during renaissance they eat it, as a matter of fact most peasants in medieval times don't really eat a lot of veggie, they only eat few kind of them like cabbages and turnips and some green stuff, most of their diet are consist of wheat and bread because they need the calories to work on their farm.
Thanks for those. I really appreciate those docs.
Excellent. Enjoyed this thoroughly
An ad every 5 minutes? I might as well go watch TV...
What ads? i haven't seen one but then im using ADblock a chrome extension and i say you best too do the same!!
probably just discovered the internet..
Ads? I haven't seen one. Perhaps you should instal an Adblock on your computer.
I can’t find this on tv. I’ll take a few ads here and there. Shut up you fool. Also it’s 4 or 5 ads tops rather 10 ads every 5 mins at least with this you can skip them after a few seconds.
Hahaha was thinking the same
X8 ads 😳
I hope there is a video about meals in the medieval period which I am really interested in. But thank you uploading this video, I found it very informative.
Lennice Ayala did you find the medieval version of this series? I just watched it
Supersizers eat is a good series w/one dedicated to medieval cooking
Another good channel if you enjoy historical cooking, is called Tasting History with Max Miller. Absolutely adore him!
14:12 It's getting almost scary, when even "History" documentaries don't know the difference between printing presses, and the practical movable types that Gutenberg introduced, to make it possible to build up blocks to be printed, with one and one letter, instead of a big slab of wood or other materials, carved out to be pressed a limited number of times.
Repeat after me Timeline: "MOVABLE TYPES"!!!
Also got the info about the world been round wrong. Common knowledge at the time, especially among the educated. The debate was around the size of the sphere, not the fact that the early was a sphere.
What a great video. It really is.
I would like to spend a day there.(Renaissance).
Ummm, what's this about the fork 'invented' in Italy and other bull?
The fork has been used in the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire since the early Middle Ages and introduced to Venice around the turn of the millennium.
Macaroni boiled for 2hrs!!!!???? Eh..Yeah, yummmmm....
This is full of fascinating info. Cardoons as a symbol of Proteatant resistance? Who knew?
They completely ignored the social and economic importance of salt. E.G. who sat above, and who sat " below the salt".
Could you point me to some rudimentary material on this topic? I am completely ignorant of it.
Also... 34:05 that's Ménestrels de Mordini performing! They can be found elsewhere on CZcams.
This is cool

"The greater world was slowly being seen as being round"
Unless this is a metaphor, this is false. The world had been known to be round since antiquity. I don't mean to be pedantic, but some clarification on this would have been appreciated.
I believe they missed the word "COMMONLY seen as round". Even though people in the antiquity figured it out, people in the MA largely thought of the Earth as flat. In the Renaissance more ordinary realised it was round.
Yes, "commonly" or "widely accepted" is clearly what was meant. Whether or not you meant it, you *were* being pedantic.
The Greeks knew the world was one
Yay for knowledge! Maybe old world recipes up to about around the 1900s please? That would be cool. :3 Thanks for uploading, very interesting.
Hmm. The only real Christian practice my family did for meals was saying grace - but we were faithful about that part. Was there a reason chicken was, specifically, boiled? My recollection of Sunday chicken (growing up), was fried.
If king Henry had ever tasted KFC, he would probably have deemed it to rich for the commoner.🍗
Commonors eat lots of KFC but the wealthy tend to avoid.
i could never be this good at cooking
A chicken in every pot? The Sunday chicken dinner? We can see how far back our own Traditions go. :-)
@SNAComics A general "we" of people capable of connecting today's traditions with their likely origins. It may or may not include you.
Clearly chick-fil-a didn’t get the memo
Learning about the Hueguenots and Gerard de Coligny is quite interesting, so I suggest people look at the St Bartholomew's Day Massacre to understand the religious war in France - 12:19 is an image of what happened that day
Hang on Introduction, don't let Spain off the hook for the religious wars of the era. Both Germany and the Netherlands would like to complain about that... And I seem to remember SOMETHING about an Armada going to England to toss a Protestant off the Throne...
An inopportune storm saved you from be speaking spanish right now.
Which Germany? There was a Holy Roman Empire divided between Protestants and Catholics, the former in quarrell with the legitimate Habsburg emperors, and there was also quarrell between other families like the Wittelsbachs or the Hohenzollern, with very complicated jurisdictions belonging to princes and bishops of many different alliances... even the Swedish and the Danish invaded the lands of the Hannover and the Brunswick-Lüneburg princes, also the Catholic French (after their savage Wars of Religion at home slaughtering the Huguenots) invaded German lands plundering other fellow-Catholics. The Spaniards were just supporting the Catholic half of the Holy Roman Empire which was by the side of their legitimate sovereign. Same in the Netherlands, which were divided between Catholics and Protestants. In the northern provinces the conflict didn't last very much, the problem was in Flanders because a majority of the population wanted to remain Catholic and loyal to their legitimate monarch (by inheritance of the House of Burgundy the King of Spain, which had even given an autonomous government to the Netherlands), what actually dragged the Spaniards into the exhausting 80 years civil war happening there with the support of England to keep the slaughter going, and also towards the fear of a French invasion. The Catholics won that war in Flanders, by the way, remaining in the Spanish Monarchy until 1715 (with the complicated puzzle of the dynastic changes of the beginning of the 18th century that provoked the War of Spanish Succession, followed by a War of Polish Succession and a latter War of Austrian Succession, all of them general European conflicts; in any case the Catholic Netherlands did not want to join the Protestant Dutch provinces of the North and Spain accepted in the Treaty of Utrecht the handover of their sovereignty to the Catholic Habsburgs of Austria as the best solution as long as they kept their rights against the greed of France and Great Britain). The Armada was just a campaign of punishment that, like in other moments in History proved to be very difficult because of the fact that, for an amphibious invasion of the British Isles by the coast, one has to control the waters of the Channel at least for fully 24 hours, which is almost impossible given the frequent storms and the plenty of natural and artificial defensive bastions along the coast, with the zero help of France and even the animosity of the coward Kingdom of Leinster helping their future invaders against the Spaniards. If the Spanish Tercios of Flanders could've crossed the Channel I don't think Spain would've colonised Britain but surely Protestant propaganda would have shut up for a few decades and the constitutional history of Britain would've been very different, perhaps without the savage Civil War and Cromwell's dictatorship, and therefore the history of Ireland would've been very different too (remember the atrocious conquest of their neighbours during Crommwell's protectorate). Anyway, the English replied with a counter-Armada that was bitterly defeated by the Spaniards afterwards, but funny enough they didn't give so much publicity to it as for the other.
We want nothing to do with Europeans!
Pasta really isn't difficult to make.
You are correct. Flour, eggs(maybe), salt, olive oil, water if necessary. But most important and it only comes with practice, you have to get "the feel". Don't ask, you will know when you get it!
Lol that chef straight up dumped the rest of his tasting spoon into the pot
When he says “corn flour” for pasta, he means wheat flour Americans! Corn is the word Europeans used for all grains. Corn is a new world vegetable.
Hence it being called by it's proper name, "maize"
Thank you! I didn't know that.
One if corn is an American food then the Europeans wouldn't know the word. Two there was trade with the new world at this time.
Wanda Pease corn flour in England is what Americans call corn starch.
@@katherinemcdowall4494 The word "corn" didn't originate in the Americas, it had been used in Europe to describe a number of different cereal crops (think "barleycorn") or to refer to a grain of something ("peppercorn"). When Europeans referred to a "field of corn" it could mean oats, wheat, or whatever other cereal was grown in that area. When they arrived in the "New World" they recognized maize as another cereal crop and simply referred to it as "Indian corn," and shortened it over time.
now now, the BBC taught us pasta is grown on trees in the swiss alps :p
Thanks.
I love how happily you guys talk about our destruction : )
This was quite a interesting video. Despite the ads were annoying 🤷
Ah, if it wasn't for the Italians.......the plate, the fork, etc. and don't forget Catarina de Medici who married the King of France and came with not only her MONEY, but with her cooks and entire kitchen!!
The Spanish also had forks, called "tridents". Catherine of Aragon brought them to England along with the dish they were used to eat, salata.
The old cookbook saves the day.
32:03 doggo on the table
c'est crade D:
What the documentary doesn't take into account is that prior to 1492, most of Europe's forests were cut down, the land was over-farmed, the seas were over-fished, and the capacity to feed the population was at a breaking point. So, a lot of the fasting days, and prohibitions on meat were really in essence, population control, and riot prevention. Once the Americas were discovered, and new sources of food were transported to Europe, the churches coincidentally became more lax on dietary restrictions.
I think you're over-reaching by quite a bit. Even a couple years ago, the Catholic Church refused to endorse any method of birth control other than rhythm. It's the last organization that has ever shown concern for population control.
Foods didn't start coming in from the Americas for a couple hundred years, really, but timber did. The gold and silver that came to Spain from its colonies produced horrible inflation which led to increased starvation in the 1500s in Spain itself. I doubt most starving people really cared what any church said. Perhaps that led to the church relaxing restrictions after the fact. I've read accounts of young Spanish men who joined the army to both get food for themselves and to leave more money/food for the rest of the family. Being sent to duty in the colonies was considered a great thing because no Spaniard starved there.
The Little Ice Age, the Black Death and the Great Famine of 1315-17 would certainly have been factors in reducing both people and food. Farming practices were not poor everywhere as is evidenced by the practising of sowing cover crops to increase soil health in the Low Countries from the 14th and 15th centuries.
@@LynxSouthi think he meant a method of control over the population, not referring to births/deaths.
Why are the speakers not credited?
@ Mercenary , ..that may be true but havent you ever watched a show/movie and found the bit character/background dancer hotter than the star themselves , whoever the actress is that plays that little part floats my boat....lol

Great video! When are Greta Thunberg, Just Stop OIl, etc going to harvest grain with a scythe as shown?
The chef at the very end of the documentary put his tasting spoon back into the risotto........smh....
It's his risotto now.
There is evidence that the earliest known use of the fork was in China. However, owing to Chinese cooking and eating etiquette, it was considered rude for the diner to have to manipulate his/her food any more than absolutely necessary (plate/bowl to mouth). Hence, the use of chop sticks which were much more readily available and cheap to produce as bamboo grows everywhere there. Implements that I use quite regularly to eat with and even when cooking.
Does the opening to this documentary sound like it's composed by the guys who did Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn or is it just me? LOL
Home boy so cross eyed how did he see the food to eat it😫😩😭😭
Now try watching the ancient cookery in South Korea and you'll be amazed by how delicate and how caring they are for the health of wo will eat their food.. Watch Dae Jang Geum or Jewel in the Palace and you will know.
34:39 looked like plastic spoons hahaha
It's amazing to see how these folks regarded sugar, almost as a gift from the gods. I assume that they had no real understanding of the dangers of too much sugar. But I am sure that sugar made most items "more" tasty, as we all have the natural cravings for sweets when encountered.
A lack of knowledge doesn't imply a lack of intelligence. Medieval people were in many respects just as smart as you are, but they lacked much of the fundamental knowledge we take for granted. The pacific ocean is how big? The Americas are two solid continents? Rifling makes projectiles fly in a straighter path? Boiling water makes it safe from tiny organisms? They lived in a world where none of this was knowledge, among many other things. You go back and somehow teach a society many modern principals of engineering and chemistry, I bet they'd take to it damn quick if you could demonstrate its practicality.
lam Kupar they were far smarter.
Only rich people could afford sugar during the Renaissance. They used it to show off their wealth. Diabetes was a rich person's diseases up into the 19th century.
True. in fact peasants of the middle ages had quite good teeth- I've seen many teeth shown on history documentaries showing skulls of peasants with good teeth and comparing them with the rotten teeth of the rich from the Elizabethan times.
They thought tiny worms caused cavities!
According to this doc, pasta was first made of corn flour in Europe. THEN Columbus brought corn back from the New World. Anybody understand how this could be?
stickplayer2 the term "corn" was used in Britain to denote any grain, particularly wheat. In the US, corn is maize.
Ben Robbins Interesting. But, you say "was". If they don't do so anymore, I still would expect a modern documentary to either point that out, and say what the real grain was, or just use the name of the real grain. And, to counter my own argument, this was probably intended primarily for the British market, so perhaps that is simply understood there.
some say marco polo was the first to bring it back from china...
stickplayer2 well.. it was called corn when it was brought in 1492.. they called everything corn.. it was maize ..then they called it Indian corn.. then just corn.... The word corn, Wiktionary tells us, can mean: (Britain) The main cereal plant grown for its grain in a given region, such as oats in parts of Scotland and Ireland, and wheat or barley in England and Wales. (US, Canada, Australia) Maize, a grain crop of the species Zea mays. The Indians were not calling it corn..
stickplayer2 you could probably find something about the evolution of food.. how sciences and classifications changed the names of a lot of things.
There are FAR too many ads for a 45 minute video.
Martin Luther directly attacked the corruption of the Catholic Church by 1517-I respectfully correct. "Eat, drink and dress as you fit, God is more concerned with how you observe His wishes, not what you eat and dress." These words ring true to me

Very poor contextualization of who and where was the prior world center for all the new world tastes, Lisbon, Portugal.
Ah, we Italians. As always, the first and the best.
Spoiler alert: the juice of four lemons did, in fact, drown the dish.
I hate when they say Columbus discovered America. He sailed there because of previous voyages by Celtic and other Northern people.
If folk history is to be believed, he sailed there because he was an idiot.
Or way more proven, realistic and actually true, because of the knowledge the Southern Portuguese had of the Trade Winds and their explorations of the inner Atlantic with Nautical Charts a few decades before Columbus, as much as because of the development of strong ships capable of oceanic long distances go and return with storage of goods that were developed mostly between Portugal and Castile, also using the knowledge of northern sailors but also of Mediterranean ones along the middle ages, and especially developing state-of-the-art cosmographic instruments and material between the universities of Coimbra and Salamanca, the School of Translators of Toledo and the many sailors, fishermen and traders between Santander, Lisbon, Seville, Mallorca and Barcelona since the Middle Ages, mixing the knowledge of the East and the West, and developing the measurement of the longitude and the latitude with improvements to the astrolabe like the cross-staff, the tables of the moon, triangulation, nautical cartography, etc. Also because of the wealth and initiative of the Kingdom of Castile, dominating the wool market of the world by that time, and by the brave men of the same land who ventured themselves into the unknown. By that time there was no notice of Viking explorations (until the falsification of the Vinland map in the 20th century) and the Irish Monks had been a light in the darkness in the High Middle Ages, but also the matter of legends (the voyage of Brendan of Clonfert), and there is no testimony of their arrival to the Americas; yes of their monastic foundations in very remote parts of Europe that helped a lot in improving the development of knowledge, culture and civilization in very difficult centuries.
Assalomu aleykum
Seriously, do we need so many adverts? C'mon, man, no. Just no.
Use adblock.
I love how the practices of the Catholic Church sort of goes against the idea that they're interpreting the will of God. The literally started changing the rules because another religion was perceived as more appealing. They cared more about followers than God. If they were truly following the will of an all-powerful creator, they would have said "It doesn't matter what's popular, it's about what God wants." Clearly, that wasn't the case.
And today we have mega churches with LED screens like a bank, ads following the highway leading to the entrance of the church, marketing schemes, rock bands to snare teenagers, etc. All at protestant churches. So I guess the shoes on the other foot now. Funny.
Are they seriously not going to truss the game birds on the spit?

Leonardo was actually vegetarian...
There is no possible way of knowing whether Da Vinci was a vegetarian for sure. He was known to consume honey, cheese, eggs and wine. It's been speculated that he might have been vegetarian to a degree and that that may have led to what might have possibly been a stroke causing partial paralysis to one side.
The main difference here being that most vegetarians of today possess little to no brain, hence fewer strokes. Many today become vegetarian owing primarily to monkey see, monkey do fads or little to no knowledge and understanding of proper diet as prescribed by evolutionary design thereby giving in to ridiculous ideology. Obviously, Da Vinci did have a brain.
The peoples of the middle ages were highly conscious of proper, balanced and medicinal diet. I'm sure the concept had been around but few in there right mind (except perhaps for medical reasons of allergy etc.) would turn down 'meat' when proffered or available. After all, the term 'vegan' wasn't even known until 1944 based primarily on the verging increased stupidity of mankind.
Hello. We are designed to be omnivorous and to eat when food becomes available as a survival characteristic (wandering HUNTER/gatherers), not three times per day which purely a modern innovation. Otherwise, our teeth and jaw would be different.
@@paulstovall3777 I'm sensing some resentment towards vegetarians. Do you need someone to talk to? It's not healthy to obsess over other people's dietary decisions.
They don't have deep fried foods.
The germanic areas had fried foods.
Oh, really? I didn't know that. :P
Lilias MacLeoid the scots developed fried chicken and the term to scotch which is to coat in flour and grains and fry
They fried in the Middle Ages but it was rare.
Oh yes, deep fried ravioli was a popular fried pasta, for example.
A lot of renaissance people must have suffered from diabetes
Only rich people could afford sugar. Type 2 diabetes was nonexistent among peasants. It was a rich person's disease. The descriptions of sugary food and artistic creations are examples of dinner parties of Kings and noblemen.
The nobles - yes :D
Colazione means breakfast in Italian, not "cold dishes". Wow
Actually it originally meant cold dish. Vai a scuola.
No mate, it clearly comes from "cold action"... lol
@@SertoriusMagnus that's a stretch. What you're saying is that it derives from azione fredda, ma the word colazione is to make breakfast. Again some truth but that's quite a leap. Cheers mate
If it meant Cold action, he should have said Cold action.
@@Dustwheel Ahhhh hahaha... that was a joke mate, I thought the "lol" was enough? Did you hit yourself in the head? Of course it does not come from "cold action".

Vulgar little, ill conceived adverts. How sad. I'll look into purchasing the documentary or renting it. The devolution of society and how we are entertained. All in the name of the Almighty Dollar. Interestingly, the products and services in the ads make them items I will conciously avoid. Grubby little hands clamoring for a coin. Discusting.
wait..what ...? Da Vinci eating meat ?! no no... don't think so.
ziraxis no meat is good
ziraxis why wouldn’t he eat meat?
Da Vinci was a vegetarian. @@Cardan011

You got great documentaries, but you ads are so ridiculous I typically don’t watch anymore. You overstepped that line where people will put up with it or they will just leave
Use adblock.
the vulgar display of sugar, just to prove that you could afford the stuff, sounds about as tacky and cringe-inducing as people putting gold foil on food.
PLEASE NOT MORE PATE IN THE MENU :(
I disagree with "Columbus discovered America". I know they believed it was true then, but we now know the Vikings were here and possibly the Scottish came here while colonizing Nova Scotia. Then possibly sometime after that Columbus made an appearance.
JERI Kingsbury : there’s good reason to believe the Chinese were visiting the West Coast of the USA before either Vespucci or Columbus.
JERI Kingsbury no the Vikings discovered America first before columbus
Not to mention the people who had been living there for thousands of years already.
'and possibly the Scottish came here while colonizing Nova Scotia'
No. There is zero evidence for the scottish being here before anybody else. The vikings may have discovered it first but that discovery was not known outside of the norse and it was quickly forgotten
' there’s good reason to believe the Chinese were visiting the West Coast of the USA before either Vespucci or Columbus'
No there isn't
'Not to mention the people who had been living there for thousands of years already'
Which has nothing to do with this discussion. When we say 'discovered america' we're referring to by the rest of the world
I think they were referencing the fact that he initiated the exchange of foodstuffs since it is a gastronomic documentary. The Vikings didn't start a major swap of goods or any meaningful transplantation of culture. They landed on a hostile rock that only supported the existence of grasses, moss and some wild grapes with a few other exceptions.
