  • Not a full review, but I'd prefer describing it as "Andalusian cookbook". "medieval Andalusian" is redundant, since Al-Andalus didn't last into modern times. And "Medieval Spain" is imprecise given there were two medieval Spains during the reconquista.VR (Please ping on reply) 13:29, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
    • I think the word medieval in "medieval Andalusian" is not redundant at all. The term Andalusians also refers to the modern inhabitants of the Spanish autnomous community of Andalusia, distinct from the usage of the term to refer to medieval Al-Andalus in alt1 and alt2. And regarding Medieval Spain, I'm changing it to Islamic Spain to avoid confusion. PeleYoetz (talk) 08:11, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
  • New enough (expanded July 30), long enough (6700 B), fully sourced. I was able to access the source and verify the statement, "the oldest of all the known versions of moufleta"; assuming good faith on the source about challah. Hooks interesting, image appetizing. Approving ALT0 and ALT1 to go with the image. — Vigilant Cosmic Penguin 🐧(talk | contribs) 18:20, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
