SC - danish recipes from 1300

[ana l. valdes]

I have all these material from a book written by the Norwegian
specialist Henry Notaker, the title is "All Cookbooks of the World". But
he doesn´t specify which recipe is from Germany, since there are three
manuscripts, one in German, one in Icelandic and one in Danish. But they
are copies of each gether and its 25 recipes. Notaker assume
Harpestreng, who lived in the 12-century in Danmark, was not the author,
but the keeper of these book.
Yours
Ana
