Amanda and Jess and others have, in the past, emailed me cooking pots off ebay asking if they were appropriate for our timeperiod. Well I finally found a set of woodcuts that everyone can look at that are close enough to our timeperiod and illustrate almost everything having to do with the kitchen.
Bartolomeo Scappi published a cooking guide in Rome in 1570 that contained not just recipes, but also woodcuts! Yes, it is almost 50 years after us, and in a wealthy wealthy setting, but it is the closest to us in looks that I have found so far. The woodcuts are nicely organized here:

Enjoy!

Said the Italian.
But I do agree, that is pretty cool.

This section might be handy:
Book Four: Seasonal foods and the items required for travelling with a nobleman.
There is a translation from 2008 on Amazon:
