De Apereylar Be De Menyar
De Apereylar Be De Menyar
The manuscript known as MS 2112 is now found in the Biblioteca de Cataluna, Barcelona. This is the third of the early Catalan culinary manuscripts and is made up of the text of the work known as DE APEREYLAR, which contains roughly 167 recipes, plus another or THIRD version of the LIBRE DE SENT SOVI. It appears there has been a very long association between the two collections of recipes. To date, the work remains unpublished, but is well described by Scully on pages 22-23 of The Neapolitan Recipe Collection. Cristina Borau, Els Nostres Clàssics is mentioned as also preparing a printed edition but again this has not been published to my knowledge.
