Check out The Forme of Cury, A Roll of Ancient English Cookery. It was compiled about 1390 CE by the Master-Cooks of King Richard II, and presented afterwards to Queen Elizabeth I by Edward Lord Stafford. It was later published by Samuel Pegge in 1791, and his name became associated with it.
You can also access the Forme of Cury at the Project Gutenberg site, including downloading zipped files of the text for reading offline.
I actually found this looking up information about hedgehogs after watching some cute videos of them which popped up as related to the cat videos below. There's a recipe for hedgehog sausages in the collection.
