Some Good gentle refered to:
<< an English source is in ~1545, in "A Newe Proper Booke of
Cokery", >>
Is there a reprint and/or redaction of this publication out
on the market? If so, what is the name, Author and ISBN if known? Your help
is gratefully appreciated.
Yours, Rosalyn MacGregor
I have a copy of this which is printed by a Civil War outfit here in the UK
for about GBP 4.50. It's a 24 page booklet. If there is no similar
publication in the US, I can look up their address details and send them to
you to follow through, or if you want, I can arrange with you off-list to do
it for you.
The recipes for pastry in it are supposedly the first detailed ones printed
in an English cookbook. It also has a lot of tart and pie filling recipes
(as well as very interesting menus).
