A demand was made to name sentences. In my opinion it is still too early for that, and there is too much eisegesis involved. But I am of course using this to find more words, which is not easy without such tries - and only this way can I then run them against other recipe books.
Here is a second example I am currently working on - find the word: mios (moss)
EVA (f66v.4-5):
shokeshy daiin cheos chety dol chckhy dal ko dal chekal dal
shdy shedefam qokedy chokal dal
Bavarian (raw reconstruction):
so wasche sein mios mit, sol menge salbe, wo salbe miwol salbt -
sechs, siede davon, wize nuwer salbe
Modern German (adjusted):
So wasche es mit Moos, man soll Salbe mengen, wo Salbe gut wirkt -
sechs [Teile] siede davon zu weisser neuer Salbe.
English:
Wash it with moss, one shall mix the salve where the salve works well -
six [parts] boil thereof into a fresh white salve.
The word mios (moss) is attested in the Old High German dictionary as a Bavarian form, with variants -eo-, -ie-, and mis, meaning muscus (moss) as well as soft plant material used as a filler or applicator. The word survived into Early New High German and is still present in the modern Bavarian dialect as mies.

As I said, the cipher isn't complete yet and probably isn't entirely correct either. But interestingly, recipe-like sentences are already emerging. That's crazy enough. But even crazier is that sentences are forming at all! And here's one where “dal” is repeated three times and preceded by a “dol”—the typical repetition problem—and yet it makes sense - a bit...
