A couple of posts on potatoes in period usage from another list.

Potatoes: /Solanum tuberosum/
Tomatoes: /Lycopersicon esculentum/

I don't collect cookbooks, but an authoritative technical source 
(Evolution of Crop Plants, Smartt and Simmonds, editors 1995, Longman 
Press, Longdon, ISBN 0-582-08643-4 ) in the section on tomatoes (by 
Charles Rick, U. California, Davis) says: Tomato first described by 
Matthiolus (1544, title in Italian). A considerably earlier introduction 
of the tomato is implied by his statement that it was already 'eaten in 
Italy with oil, salt and pepper' (p. 453)

The same book in the section on Potatoes says "The first recorded 
European contact with the potato was in 1537 in the Magdalena valley. 
The Spanish invaders became familiar with the crop and it was probably 
about 1570 that a Spanish ship first introduced potatoes to 
Europe.'...'From Spain potatoes were widely spread round Europe by the 
end of the century and were repeatedly the object of writings and 
drawings by the herbalists.' ...'Probably the first introduction to 
England (about 1590) was independent of the earlier Spanish introduction.'
[It also comments that Andean potatotes were ill-adapted for growth in 
Europe:  they tuber late or not at all in the long days of a north 
temperate summer]  (all of the potato stuff page 468, written by N W

A treatise on the lowly potato(e)

Karen Hess has done quite a bit of research which she has liberally noted in her 'translation' of Martha Washington's Booke of Cookery & Book of Sweetmeats.

On pages 85-87 she notes:
"the sweet potato, Ipomoea batatas, and the white potato, Solanum tuberosum,
both plants from the New World are not remotely related, yet their
identities were hopelessly entangled in the sixteenth and seventeenth
centuries. Sources, even highly regarded ones, are contradictory, not to say
self-contradictory. Turner, in 1548, makes no mention of either potato, but
in 1577, Harrison speaks of 'the potato and such venerous roots are as
brought out of Spaine, Portingale and the Indies to furnish up our bankets
[banquets].'* By 1586, there appears in Thomas Dawson's  The Good Huswifes
Jewell, Part I, a recipe entitled: To make a tart that is a courage to man
or woman, that calls for Potaton...." The aphrodisiac of which I mentioned
earlier.

It goes on to say that sweet potatoes were referred to as simply 'Potatoes'
or 'Spanish Potatoes' and that white were called 'Potatoes of Virginia'

* William Harrison, Description of England, 1577

It also notes that white potatoes reached the English market mid-seventeenth
century.
and now to some receipts: did I mention that this wasn't a dessert - rather
a vegetable dish?

"A Potato Pye: or any root-pye:
My Lady Howes Receipt
Boyle your potatows almost tender peele them and lay them in a past; put in
the yolks of hard eggs, dates and marrow; season it with a little cinimon
beaten, and suger; and large mace; lay slices of butter at ye bottome of
your pye and one on top also; when it is baked put it in a caudle of
whitewine butter and suger; then set it in ye over againe for a little
while; so you may make any kinde of roote-pye"

This is the earliest one I have - it dates before 1600 but no actual stone
fast date, sorry.

So for those looking at late period dishes use potatoes with confidence.

> If the venison is young, it does not need marinating;
> otherwise marinate several hours or even overnight. For the
> marinade use 1 pint of vinegar, 1 pint of red wine, several
> bay leaves, 4 shallots, 2 sliced carrots, 1 lemon cut into
> thin slices, some freshly ground pepper, and a handful of
> juniper berries. Carefully remove the skin from a loin of
> venison without tearing the meat and wipe it with a damp
> cloth. Lard the loin symmetrically with bacon (not larding
> pork). Dust with salt and pepper, cover liberally with
> butter, and roast in a hot oven for one hour, basting almost
> continuously with the butter in the pan and 2 cups of sour
> cream. Remove the meat to a hot platter; carefully stir 1
> tablespoon of flour into the pan, then add a cup of hot
> stock, cook for several minutes, and strain through a fine
> sieve. (Though not orthodox, a leg of lamb may be
> substituted but in that case marinate for several days.)
