You are probably right on this as far as the cookbooks go, as someone else
mentioned. But even if no earlier Danish cookbook has survived, an individual
recipe or two may have. Or other information on Danish foods might be
available. As with the Norse Viking foods or those of other cultures,
sometimes you have to just work with less.

Okay, then perhaps I've saved that in one or more bread oriented files.

I realized later that since this earlier message probably detailed an online
resource, I probably saved those messages in the online cookbooks file.
