[Sca-cooks] Portuguese Manuscript

[JIMCHEVAL at aol.com]

I'm a tad confused. You cite a translation, so presumably you know that it  
exists.

The text itself is here:

ex.htm
 
Here's a translation of it:

guese%20Cuisine%20From%20the%2015th%20C.pdf

Here's  a blog post on it which can be readily translated:

Here's an English language look at one of the recipes in it:

Etc. Lots out there.
