[Sca-cooks] process approach to food history - custard

[Johnna Holloway]

Buttes' Dyets Dry Dinner appeared in print in 1599 and contains dietary 
information,  so
yes the Elizabethans are still at least paying lip service to dietary 
conventions in print.
Moufat or Mouffett's work which appeared in print for the first time in 
the 1650's but was
written in circa 1594-1595 also contains dietary information. Eating 
Right in the Renaissance
is the title that surveys these and other late dietaries.
