Hmmm. I'm curious why you didn't get a response. I believe it was
someone on this list who did write the author (the translator, not
Dembinska, as she's dead) asking about wafers I believe. They got
a reply much quicker than I would have expected one and the author
seemed quite helpful.

I believe the message quoting the author can be found in one of these
two files in the Florilegium:
wafers-msg        (46K) 10/ 8/99    Period savory and sweet wafers. Recipes.
  (in FOOD-BREADS. I think I still have some info to go into this file
and thus that particular message may not be there, yet)
fd-Poland-msg      (7K)  9/ 9/99    Food of period Poland. Referances.
  (In FOOD-BY-REGION)
