[Johnna Holloway]

Petits Propos Culinaires 99 has arrived. Among the articles are some that might be
of great interest to this list.


The Tacuinum Sanitatis: a Medieval Health Manual	Loren D. Mendelsohn
pp. 69-89
Brief history with bibliography.
Contains a listing of the various manuscripts. Facsimiles are discussed. Plus a table that includes all the items
listed in the Taqwim al-Sihha and 6 of the Latin translations. Very small typeface, but it could be xeroxed and blown up.

Also there's 
Service à la russe: or à la nordique?	Henry Notaker
and as a bonus along article on 
Asian Citrus – Marmalade & Random Notes	Phil Iddison
