Cromwellian Conversations 21: Mrs Cromwell's Cookery Book
One of the most unassuming items in the Cromwell Museum's collections is a small leather-bund book. It is a copy of one of the strangest cookery books ever published, 'The Court and Kitchen of Elizabeth Cromwell'. Published in 1664 as a piece of anti-Cromwell propaganda, it purports to contain the recipes of Cromwell's wife Elizabeth, which the family ate. But did they really? Cromwell Museum Curator Stuart Orme examines this object and the amazing story behind it.
