Reading this 1388 recipe book is interesting. It's in english, but everything is spelled weird:
"Take Ryse and waishe hem clene."

Is: Take rice and wash them clean
Walton
Take Caboches and quarter hem and seeth hem in gode broth with Oynouns y mynced and the whyte of Lekes y slyt and corue smale [2] and do þer to safroun an salt and force it with powdour douce [3]

>> I'm calling cabbages Caboches now.

"Powdour douce" was a special spice blend of the period.
