SC - irish recipe question

Ok, this is a pretty stupid idea, I admit.  However, I can only try.

It's pretty hard to find evidence for food of my Persona's eatin'.  Like
12th century Irish.  There's that leek dish (thank you, your Grace), 
there's oatmeal, and a couple of others.  I also hear of a earlyish
period
northern European source, but I haven't been able to put my hands 
on it yet.  So here's my question. . .

Would it be out of line to take recipes from that source (I'm thinking 
the 'Icelandic Chicken' source) and check the foods against what
was probably available in Ireland, and make foods that could have 
been made in Ireland based on that book, with substitutions and 
exchanges legal?  It would be better, IMHO, than spit roasting a
salmon.
