"Libro de Guisados". It's the 16th century Spanish cookbook I'm
translating, and from which I have occasionally posted recipes, which is
taken from an earlier Catalan work. Ruperto de Nola, aka Mestre
Robert, identified himself as cook to King Ferrando of Naples. Very
little is known about him, and IIRC, some scholars feel that the name is
a pseudonym.
