Yes.  Petits Propos Culinaires had a two-part article on Inca food with 
quotes from contemporary Spanish sources.  The redoubtable Sophie Coe 
was the author.  It is in Volume 29 and 31.  The first is "Inca Food:  
Animal and Mineral" and the second is "Inca Food: Vegetable."  If you 
post me privately (and send chocolate??) I can see about getting you a 
copy if you don't have access to PPC via a library, etc.

For anyone with a spare $23.50, one year's subscription can be yours 
(three issues).  It is a treasure trove of culinary history and 
occasional true delights for those of a medieval/Renaissance bent.  I 
have most of the issues ever published.  Ask for it for a present!
