Italian here, great video!
Just a small note: Anonimo Veneziano is NOT an author, ot means anonymous man from Venice
A LOT of medieval recepies still comes in surface today here in italy, where beer was not the first consumed alchol. It was wine.
About the sugarness, you also forgot cream. Butter+milk, sometimes with eggs. Belive it or not, that was a sweet.

it's true about the fish, my home town still has part of it's medieval wall and a place called Oyster lane - if you dig in some of the local gardens deep enough you find this white chalk like level made up of of shells cockels, mussels & oysters
it was cheap food for fridays for the poor.

It's interesting how the luxury foods have swapped today. During medieval times Salmon was considered a peasant food, a food of the masses if you will; and chicken was considered to be the luxury item. Now chicken is very much the food of the masses and salmon is the luxury item.

the bread bowl thing actually sounds kinda good
If I was alive during these times, I would be the best chef in the world my stuff will always be cooked all the way, and never use anything that will make people ill.

Thanks to the discovery of the new world?
Thanks to the transatlantic slave trade you mean!
This is why sugar became cheaper and more plentiful and available to more levels of income people.

sugar makes everything taste better, but when you look at skeletons from before sugar was introduced versus after its very disturbing but very interesting how different the state of the teeth are!

Huh. I know that Im supposed to be disgusted by the fake egg, but now I just want to put almond extract in plain gelatin. I think it would taste refreshing with berries.

Hell yeah I'd love to try some of these junk food recipes because I already cook medieval. The best stew recipe I've ever eaten in my life is over 800 years old.

The poor people use to blacken their teeth, to appear rich, because only the rich could afford sugar and they ate tons of it and in return, it rotted their teeth

And what was fast food in the middle ages, like the bread bowl, became a high-end food today that could sell for at least $15 at a restaurant where I live

The fact religion controlled so much for our ancestors sucks so much, I wonder how life would be if religion never came to be. Life would be so peaceful

Deliceau is a really good movie on Prime. It's about a French Cook who starts the first restaurant.
This reminds me if that movie.

I still can't imagine how nasty I'd feel in the middle ages. And that era where dudes wore powdered wigs and lead.
