No, it is extremely unlikely to be period. There are some period
recipes for potatoes, but most of these are for the sweet potato. The
recipes simply say potato and aren't specific whether they are
talking about the white or sweet potato. Many are cooked similarly to
how we cook sweet potatoes today, so they are assumed to be using
sweet potatoes. There are a few which are indeterminate and might be
for the white potato, but that is questionable. And even these are
Spanish recipes and not British.
