You already been given a good list of resources.  A few are not
available in English.  Do you read Spanish?

One that I didn't see mentioned is the Manual de Mujeres, a 15/16th
century household manual.  Much of it is cosmetic/medicinal recipes,
but there's some food recipes, too.  The Spanish is here:

and an English translation is here:

And if you have questions, ask.  Someone here is likely to know.
