While I do not have a file expressly for primary sources, I do have a
number of files with annotated bibliographies and comments and reviews
on various cookbooks that might be of interest. 

>From what I've heard here I'm not sure there are any cookbooks published
that are complete copies and only copies of primary sources. Most (all?)
seem to be portions of the primary sources or portions with selected
interpretations (redactions). I think though that for what most on this
list are attempting to do, this should be sufficent. If you are doing
some kind of statistical survery, then using an incomplete copy might
be a problem.

Anyway, you might look at these files in the FOOD (soon to be the
FOOD-BOOKS) section of my Florilegium:
