[Sca-cooks] Measurements in de Casteau

[lilinah at earthlink.net]

I'm looking at de Casteau's Ouverture de la Cuisine and i have 
noticed some unfamiliar measurements. I wonder what source would 
explain them...

satin - a measurement of spices
sopine - a measurement of liquid
un voir - a measurement of liquid, e.g., "de malvoisie ou vin d'Espagne"
un reumer - a measurement of liquid, e.g., "de vin d'Espagne"

I don't just want to know what each is - i seem to have come across 
the modern form of two of them - although i do want to know what they 
are. But i am also looking for a resource that will explain medieval 
measurements, or, as in this case, French measurements, when i run 
across others - bearing in mind that many change over time exactly 
what quantity they are.
