Ah, I didn't realize that was an issue.  Then let me tell you that the 
1726 RAE gives 3 definitions for "pebete".  Here are quick 
paraphrases:
1. An aromatic composition, made of scented powders, which 
burns and gives off fragrant smoke.  Made in the shape of a stick.
2. Any bad-smelling thing (used in a way deliberately contrary to 
the usual meaning)
3. A fuse for explosives.

At a guess, what you have here is a recipe for incense sticks.

Thank you for undertaking this.  It's an interesting book, and I know 
a lot of people will be glad to see more of it in English.
