Exercise 5
Study the mind map above. Type in the missing letters to fill in the gaps in the text. As with many other historical periods, what medieval people ate largely depended on their social status. Peasants’     1. sTu uzupełnij     were based on cereals and grains, mostly     2. bTu uzupełnij     or     3. rTu uzupełnij.     They ate a lot of     4. pTu uzupełnij,     a kind of stew made from     5. oTu uzupełnij     and vegetables. Most people preserved foods that had been salted or pickled, such as pickled     6. hTu uzupełnij     or     7. pTu uzupełnij     from pigs, which were cheap to keep as they were able to fend for themselves in the forest. Peasants were forbidden to hunt animals such as     8. dTu uzupełnij     or rabbits that lived in woodland surrounding most villages, as they were considered to be the property of the lord. In contrast, a nobleman’s diet consisted of freshly killed meat, for instance     9. gTu uzupełnij,     and river fish like     10. tTu uzupełnij     or     11. bTu uzupełnij.     Their dishes were heavily flavoured with valuable imported spices, such as     12. pTu uzupełnij     or     13. nTu uzupełnij.     Banquet tables were decked with spectacular dishes, for example roasted     14. pTu uzupełnij     adorned with their own feathers and dried fruit like dates. All the dishes looked very colourful, and many of them were dyed to achieve this effect, for example by using     15. sTu uzupełnij     for vivid yellow, or sandalwood for red.
