The Blackadder Recipes: An Unofficial Culinary Journey Through History

A collection of recipes from the Blackadder TV series

From the questionable depths of late 15th-century peasant pottage to the absolute culinary war crimes of the World War I trenches, The Blackadder Recipes is the ultimate, cunningly devised cookbook for fans of the iconic British comedy.

What started as a personal culinary endeavor by a dedicated fan has transformed into a complete historical tour of the food mentioned across the show’s four eras and specials. Whether you are craving a slice of Pie in the Shape of a Pie, looking to impress the Prince Regent with a plate of Huge, Suspicious-Looking Sausages in a Scarlet Pimpernel Sauce, or simply trying to survive Rat Fricassee, this book has you covered.

Inside, you will find:

  • A completely honest edibility rating system for every single dish.
  • Dozens of recipes adapted for the modern kitchen, ranging from genuine historical classics to Trench-gourmet excellence.
  • Step-by-step instructions to recreate everything from a majestic Curried Turtle to an entirely questionable Turnip Surprise.

It is the perfect companion for anyone who appreciates a good turnip, a cunning plan, and a truly fit-for-a-prince Bread & Butter Pudding
