I think Thora Sharptooth (her mundane last name is Priest-Dorman) has 
a good deal of information on the subject; you should be able to find 
her web page pretty easily. So far as I know there aren't any period 
Scandinavian cookbooks, unless you count the one from an Icelandic 
Medical Miscellany and it's sister manuscripts. But you probably 
shouldn't count them since they are apparently daughter manuscripts 
of a lost southern European original. At least, that is what Grewe 
concluded from his study of them.
