And then, there remains the question of how to date this oldest Polish cookbook. Its first edition couldn’t be published earlier than 1535, which was when ''Kuchařství'' came out in Prague. After all, the translation can’t be older that the original. The latest possible date, on the other hand, is 1547, wich is when the cookbook was noted in Szarffenberg’s inventory. It was only in the 21st century that it was possible to significantly narrow this 12-year gap, thanks to a&nbsp;catalogue of the library which belonged to Austrian book collector Hieronymus Beck von Leopoldsdorf{{czyt|Hieronymus Beck von Leopoldsdorf}} (1525–1596). One of the items listed in his catalogue is “''Kuchmistrzstwo'' [sic] Prossowol 1536”. It’s unclear what “Prossowol” could mean; it may have refered to some printer who hailed from the village of Proszowice{{czyt|Proszowice}} near Cracow. In any case, if that printer had published an edition of ''Kuchmistrzostwo'' as early as 1536, then it would mean that the Polish translation came out only a&nbsp;year after the Czech original.<ref>{{Cyt
