It's in Castrelvett'si (I think that's the name) The Herbs, Fruits, and
Vegetables of Italy (published in 1614, so it's almost period).  Barnes
and Nobles carried this for a while, and you may still be able to get it
through amazon.com.

My copy is at home, but I'll dig it up tonight and post the recipe tomorrow.
