You may want to get a hold of these books:
Hagen, Ann. A SECOND HANDBOOK OF ANGLO-SAXON FOOD & DRINK: PRODUCTION &
DISTRIBUTION. Anglo-Saxon Books. 1995.  An excellent book about the foods
available in that time period, and information on how they were eaten. Not a
cookbook, but good information about the food and foodways.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Hagen, Ann. A HANDBOOK OF ANGLO-SAXON FOOD. Processing and Consumption.
Anglo-Saxon Books, Nisslwawx, England. 1992.  This is not a cookbook per say,
but a book about Anglo-Saxon food and foodways.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Also, there is also this file in the Florilegium:
