 There should have been seed (etc) analyses made at the digs in Dublin and

So, as you are there, and I am not, are there sources for Viking cookery?
 Any cookbooks?

PS, even if they are in Swedish or Old Norse, we have a scholar in our
Barony, Master Michael Fenwick of Fotheringhay that can probably at least
rough it out for me.  I would be -very- interested in knowing about cooking
styles and choices of food from the Viking period.
