[Sca-cooks] Sent Sovi "Translation"

[JIMCHEVAL at aol.com]

I forgot to mention that one early edition is available as a (page by page) 
 scan:

Llibre de bons amonestaments : Llibre de menescalia, de Manuel  Díez. Flors 
de les receptes del tresor de beutat. De totes maneres de confits.  De 
totes maneres de potatges de menjar [Llibre de Sent Soví] (VISOR)

Intentionally set up it seems so you can't download it as a pdf. You might  
want to start by using the "miniatures" button, since the beginning has a 
lot of  blank pages.
 
This copy is in the library of the University of Barcelona.

An earlier copy is in Valencia.
 
 
The Catalonian government (Generalitat) itself gives an overview of the  
book:

One way to find modern Catalan or Spanish texts from the work might simply  
be to look around the Net:
