[Sca-cooks] Redaction

[David Walddon]

Well I think the word redaction is right but not sure changing it into a verb by adding "ing" is kosher. 
Your final recipe is a redation. 
The act of constructing a modern recipe from a period one should maybe be called something other than "redacting". 
Like experimenting? 
What else? 
Cooking? 

Not sure.
