Which means -- at best! -- that Cosman took a redaction of an
early-17th century recipe and stuck it in a collection that she said
was taken from 14th-15th century manuscripts.

As most folks here know, I have no objection to late-period recipes.
 I do a lot of work with late-period sources, but I don't claim that
they're a century or two older than they really are.
