Page 9 has a word obscured--"one of three known famous
---- bearing that name". Another source of the text has
the word as 'eaters', so the same has been used here.
Page 23 has a reference to a "modern" sauce, A I. There
were no obvious references to be found for a sauce of
that name, so it may be a typo for A1 sauce, which was
available at the time of writing. As there is no way to
be certain, however, it has been preserved as printed.
Page 49--note to recipe 13 reads, "Exactly as we today
with fried herring and river lamprey". It is possible
that it should read "as we do today", but has been left
as printed.
Page 151--recipe 241 has a note 1, but no marker in the
text.
Page 166--recipe 275 has a marker for note 1, but no
note with that number.
Page 172--Note 1 to recipe 294 reads "making it convenient
and unprofitable for the domestic cook"--this should
probably be read as "inconvenient and unprofitable",
but it has been left as printed.
Page 175--recipe 305 has a marker for note 2, but no
note with that number.
Page 189--recipe 351 has a marker for note 2, but no
note with that number.
Page 211--recipe 405a has a marker for note 2, but no
note with that number.
Page 226--there is no title for recipe 445.
Page 230--there is no Latin translation provided for the
heading "EEL".
Page 243--recipe 481 is titled "FISH STEWED IN WINE",
but does not mention wine anywhere in the recipe itself.
Page 284--contained incorrectly placed index entries for
CLIBANUS, CNICOS and CNISSA (following COXA). These have
been moved to the correct place.
Page 291--the index entry for Morsels also seems to have
had the recipe references (309, seq.) for Morels included;
this has been preserved as printed.
Page 291--contained incorrectly placed index entry for
Mullet (following MUSTUM). This has been moved to the
correct place.
Page 292--in the subentry for OLUS (OLUS AND CAULUS),
there is an ℞ but no number.
