Your Grace!
You really need to purchase a copy of the Ni'matnama Manuscript. It is a 15th Century
manuscript and even though it isn't as big as one would wish, it is a treasureroom
of fascinating recipes. It is fascinating to seen the relationship between this
manuscript and the al-Baghdadi and the cross over foods.
I know we talked about Samosas on this list earlier and there are recipes in this
manuscript for them.
You would do well to purchase a copy.
Just my 2 pfennig.
