[Sca-cooks] Sca-cooks Digest, Vol 67, Issue 19

Sure -- Vienna Codex 2644, and Latin Codex 9333.  In both cases, about 3/4 of the way through.  I currently have on loan a copy of the original Arabic with a French translation, so I checked that as well -- entry 258 (رنح) is sekanjabin in Arabic and is translated as oxymel.  The original Arabic version is not illustrated.

-- Galefridus
