With respect, Master A., I'm afraid that it's a start that wouldn't go 
anywhere.  The Reader's Guide does not usually index scholarly 
journals and publications.  It's meant to be an index to periodicals of the 
sort that are carried by public and school libraries.  However, the article 
by Skaarup (in _Du Manuscrit a la table_) is nicely footnoted, and 
contains the following citation:

Grewe, Rudulf, "An Early 13th Century Northern-European Cookbook" in 
_Current Research in Culinary History: Sources, Topics and Methods 
(Proceedings of the Conference sponsored by the Schlesinger Library of 
Radcliffe College and the Culinary Historians of Boston)_, Culinary 
Historians of Boston, 1986, pp. 27-45.
