[Sca-cooks] 10th C. Cornish?

There's an interesting article in the Florilegium about 12th-century
Sicilian food.  Sicily is sor of Italian (not so much in the 12th-century
as much as tody, hence the soft of).  Maybe that will help.  I also
remember reading about a reference to pasta in a description of a
12th-century banquet, but I can't remember even remotely where it is. 
Sorry!
