The aim of this paper is to resum in a few pages our knowledge about the
so called De Re Coquinaria, attributed to Marcus Gavius Apicius. We analy¬
se the most important "ingredients" of this text and we carefully describe his
manuscript transmission. Our stemma codicum completely coincide with
the M. E. Milham's editio teubneriana stemma. Our work represents one
of the basic researchs for our editio apiciana in the collection "Fundació
Bernât Metge".
