Late 18th-very early 19th centaury Britain, before the industrial revolution but the proceeds of the empire are coming in, spices and exotic foods are still fashionable because the lower classes haven't gotten to them but a lot of experimentation is going on, medieval food with modern ingredients basically.

I recall reading some English king actually had mammoth steaks served at a feast in the 14th century or something, it'd been preserved in a bog of some sort. I'd like a fresher sample myself, but I suspect a lot of the megafauna the lived between the last ice age and now would be pretty stellar. I'd love to try some irish elk, personally.

None. They didn't have a lot to work with since the world was not connected and shipping took too long for foods to cross the globe without spoilage. Most anons would cry at the idea of eating the stuff they ate back then. At best, the most elite kings and nobility had salt to enhance meats. Everyone else ate 90% grains, slop, and had to carefully conserve their salt.

There are fruits, vegetables, meats and seasonings written about and are now lost to time. Sometimes we don't have a translation for them and we don't know what it was, sometimes we know it doesn't exist anymore, sometimes humans have overharvested it to extinction. I'd be surprised if you could ever find some of the citrus varieties that were crossed and crossed back to make lemons, oranges and grapefruits and shit like that.
