For quite a long time, I have been putting together untranslated cookbooks and volunteer translaters. The purpose of this page is to shift the first stages of that project to the web. It contains links to scanned images of pages from several untranslated early cookbooks. Anyone interested in translating one of them is invited to try translating some of the material here and, if still interested, EMail me for a hardcopy of more of the source.
A Romanian cookbook, probably 17th century
A very big and elaborate 16th c. German cookbook, apparently by Marx Rumpolt
A smaller 16th c. German cookbook
A 16th c. Dutch cookbook
Someone has now sent me a link to a webbed
translation of this one!
An early 17th c. Spanish cookbook
A 13th c. Andalusian cookbook (arabic).
