The recipe is one I received in response to a question I asked the list a
couple of months ago. Elinor Fettiplace was an Elizabethan lady who set
down her recipes in a manuscript dated 1604. Fettiplace gave the cookbook
to her niece in 1647. While many, if not all, of the recipes are probably
of Elizabethan origin, there is a possibility that some of the recipes may
be Jacobean or later.
