Nope, sorry, I meant what period document did you find this recipe in.
Elvish first-hand accounts and/or testimony from elves of your

Yes, but in this case, what did the recipe say to use, Elric?

No, dear, how did they figure out what date the recipe was written down?
Was it carbon dating, location, archaelogical evidence or elvish
testimony?
