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!
