[Sca-cooks] Looking for help

[Kathleen Roberts]

define period... ;)
 
there is not a lot out there as far as recipes, but a lot you can go from in monastic records and brehon law for early irish.   if you are looking late irish, there are some references to what people ate in diaries  and letters from the 1700s.  there is the theory that recipes tend to be written down 100 years after things were popular.
 
i have done a lot of digging in things early irish, so please let me know if i can help.
