Schmitt (1908,123) suspects Pastinaca sativa L.: "dynige 96/12 'wild parsnip' (von dūn abgeleitet, Sweet)" but this identification is not possible as englisc moru (= Daucus carota L.) and wy̅lisc moru (= P. sativa) occur in the same recipe (cf. s.v. →more (1)). Dynige is the last word in a list of 44 plant names and could also be a form of a not recorded verb; for this the DOE suggests imperative singular of dyngan ‘to pound, beat’. The DOE also suggests a spelling error for dyncge ‘dung’. Pollington suggests the name(?) 'dinny' and derives it from dun 'hill'; his reference to Bierbaumer (1975, s.v. dynige) is wrong.
