Explores the demand for spices: why were they so popular, and why so expensive? This work surveys the history, geography, economics and culinary tastes of the Middle Ages to show the varied ways that spices were put to use - in elaborate medieval cuisine, in the treatment of disease, and to perfume ceremonies of the Church.
