Husked wheat was used for porridge and bread.
Bread was often eaten with cheese, honey, fruit, sausage, shellfish, fish, eggs, game, fowl, oysters, pork, dormice, or snails.

Food was often baked in a circular oven, cooked by cauldrons hanging from chains , or via vessels fixed onto gridirons.
Meat was often broiled.
Vinegar was frequently used in cooking.
