Hello All,
again I am WAY behind in my mails (too much work before and after the
holiays and no computer during the holidays)
Just some notes on the austrian cookbook site you found, which is btw NOT
from the austrian state museum but the Upper Austrian County museum
(Obero(with dots = oe)sterreichisches Landesmuseum), it does have not only
have recipes but also digitized hand written and (unfortunately not
diditized) printed cookbooks. Alas all in german.
See Kochbuchhandschriften for handwritten texts the earliest one of the 87
they own is from 1646, the oldest printed one is from 1552. Balthasar
Staindl „Ain künstlichs und nutzlichs Kochbuch“, printed in Augsburg by
Valentin Ottmar (not digitized).
The link does sometimes have the whole book as PDF and a link to certain
transcribed recipes, almost all have links to the images.
http://www.alteskochbuch.at/kochbuchhandschriften.php
There are two more old Austrian cookbook sites available: one from the
university of Salzburg and one from the Universit of Graz:
This is the link to the University of Salzburg's (County Salzburg)
"Lucullarium", the old cookbook page:
http://www.ubs.sbg.ac.at/sosa/lucullarium.htm
The oldest one is from the 15c, here the link to the transcribed recipes,
there are imagefiles available of the cookbook pages
http://www.ubs.sbg.ac.at/sosa/lucull/lucull128.htm
And this is the Link to the University Library of the University of Graz
(in Styria) again to handwritten (oldest 2nd half of 15c. MS1609, link has a
glossar ) and printed (1688 earliest only the image files lead to a valid
link) textes.
Her are links to the glossar for each text, and transcriptions of various
recipes:

Link with detailed information and imagefiles to the whole book:
http://sosa2.uni-graz.at/sosa/katalog/katalogisate/1609.html
for the printed version you have to click on the book title to find the
glossar and a further link to the full text on Thomas Gloning pages:

According to the initial page, the earliest is 1646 (von 1646) for the
database of recipes taken from the manuscripts.
Here's some more info. Google Translate works pretty well.
The library has 87 handwritten cookbooks from the period from 1646 to the
20th Century.
The recipe database of the library of the Upper Austrian Provincial Museum
contains original recipes from the handwritten cookbooks of her collection
from 1646 to the 20th Century.
Please note that this database is emerging, it is constantly being expanded.
The database contains:
The original recipe name
The modernized recipe name
The assignment to a division of food
A list of the main ingredients
The complete transcription of the recipe text (sporadically!)
The complete transfer in contemporary language and units of measure
(planned)
The pictorial representation of the original text (in progress)
The source of the recipe (Cookbook detection by signature and page number)
------
The printed collection is described here:
The oldest printed cookbook library comes from, 1552. It is Balthasar
Staindls "Ain k?nstlichs and nutzlichs cookbook," printed at Augsburg by
Valentin Ottmar.
The next volume that is featured seems to be 1718.
Certainly worth a browse.
