There is a translation of a 14th Century Chinese Cookbook in PPC 61 (I
think) with suggested changes for some of the translations in a later issue.
I think this is a direct translation only - no hints or thoughts on how to
make them in a modern kitchen. I can dig it out at home late tonight, if it
is the kind of thing you are looking for. 

PPC - Petit Propos Culinaire. It is a scholarly historical cookery journal.

Meliora.
