Recipe Details
Evidence
"The recipes are often written in prose with a rubricated title beginning ‘For ...’."
Remarks
Rubrication was used as a structural device to separate and identify individual recipes within large collections. The presence of rubricated titles (often starting with 'For...') provided a visual coherence that often masked the 'patchwork process' of reproduction from oral and varied textual sources (p. 17).
