How 'bout the Anglo-Norman one? I don't have a reference to hand but I'll
bet it's in Stefan's files somewhere...

I'd also go with the "Libellus de Arte Coquinaria" AKA the Harpestrang
Codex.  Mostly French recipes, IIRC.  And I think our good Adamantius has
worked up a couple from Anthimus?

Would these work? Anthimus is what, 8th century?  And the Harpestrang is
about 1200, that should serve you nicely.
