Greetings!  For Jewish food in period (minus recipes) you might want to 
look at _Eat and Be Satisfied_: A Social History of Jewish Food by John 
Cooper, published by Jason Aronson Inc., 1993.  Actually, he includes 
four recipes from "Kitab al-tabih ft-l-Maghrib wa-al-Andalus fi 'asr 
al-Muwahhidin" (whew!), "a 13th-century compilation by an anonymous 
author".  While the book doesn't have recipes per se (except as above) 
it does detail the specific foods )and sometimes the method of 
preparation) for the numerous phases of Jewish life.
