Recipe Details
Ingredients
European paper, Dutch paper
Preparation Steps
The paper features a watermark with the prefix 'Co.B.' and the name 'Berends'. While J. Berends watermarks are known from 1777-1782, the 'Co.B.' variant is not found in standard catalogs like Churchill or Haewood (p. 23). It is interpreted as a 'Company' mark with 'B.' potentially signifying a Dutch city (p. 23).
Original Recipe Text

Evidence
"The study also found the presence of one of the water marks with the initials Co.B. Berends whose historical review has not been conducted before."
Remarks
This is a new finding in codicological research as the Co.B. prefix was previously undocumented in major catalogs (p. 26). It serves as an example of a previously unknown European paper variant used in Southeast Asian manuscripts.
