At Pennsic, I picked up a cookbook titled Sabina Welser's Cookbook
translated from Das Kochbuch der Sabina Welserin (c. 1553) by Valoise
Armstrong. Does anyone know anything about the german source for this
cookbook? Are the recipes truly all from the mid-1500s?
Unfortunately, this is only the English translation and does not include
the original german.
The reason I ask is this cookbook is unsual in several regards. A number
of the recipes give amounts. There are several pastry recipes (standing
pies, dumplings and tarts). Since these are unusual offerings in the
English, French and Italian books I have studied I wondered if this
cookbook was entirely from the mid-1500's or maybe contained later
recipes as well.
