The content of Potage was merged into Pottage on 10 July 2021. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. For the discussion at that location, see its talk page.

Removed redirect

I removed the redirect to potage because that page describes something that originated in France in the Middle Ages, whereas pottage was a characteristically British food from the late stone age, through the Roman period and into the Middle Ages. I'm not sure when exactly it started to fall out of favour, or whether "pottage" and "potage" are part of a continuous tradition.

I have assumed that what is in potage is correct, but I haven't been able to verify it. Someone who knows more about the history of stew will need to take a look at both articles and connect them together properly. Ireneshusband (talk) 10:51, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

The two articles "potage" and "pottage" overlap significantly. Any distinctions that were originally intended have been lost. The articles should probably be combined. I'll suggest that formally at some point. MonteGargano (talk) 20:07, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

I noticed that as well and have proposed a merge. I don't have a preference on which title is kept. Spudlace (talk) 20:21, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Cottage gardens

"These were called potage gardens by the French": that struck me as questionable.

It's cited to "America's Intelligence Wire", with no link or ISBN. A websearch for that publication resulted in nothing except echoes of Wikipedia.

I'm sceptical that the French ever referred to anything as a "potage garden", because "garden" isn't a French word.

Any objection if I delete this sentence because it's inadequately sourced? MrDemeanour (talk) 16:59, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

I agree it should be removed. I couldn't find the reference given, either. — Matuko (talk) 13:26, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

So I removed it. MrDemeanour (talk) 12:49, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

please fix references

in section England:

"The earliest known cookery manuscript in the English language, The Forme of Cury, written by the court chefs of King Richard II,[6] contains several pottage recipes including one made from cabbage, ham, onions and leeks.[7] Google Books and Internet Archive. A slightly later manuscript from the 1430s is called Potage Dyvers ("Various Pottages").[8]"

I'm pretty sure (I really hope) that "Google Books and Internet Archive" should NOT appear visibly IN the text (as direct links) as they currently do.

Could someone please convert these into the normal form of references, showing ONLY the number(s) in the text? Thx :-)) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:3032:303:4D8D:4BBE:B956:DEE4:615A (talk) 13:26, 28 July 2024 (UTC)

“kidneys”

In the England portion of this article, is “kidneys” meaning the meat of the kidney of other animals, or kidney beans? 2600:6C44:44F0:5520:1997:3931:61DA:5C9D (talk) 06:24, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

The organs. Kidney beans weren't available in medieval England ThornyHemlock (talk) 09:54, 26 February 2025 (UTC)

Preparation - claim regarding intentions

States that the intention was to break down complex starches and for food safety. Appears blatantly false to me since I don't believe that the understanding of biology or even chemistry had advanced that far yet. Plenty of food was not cooked to that extent. Presumably it was done for flavor as with other stocks, broths, and similar dishes.

I think the entire "preparation" section as it currently stands should be removed but don't want to do so unilaterally. ~2025-37598-50 (talk) 03:16, 17 December 2025 (UTC)
