antique roman dishes; the second item on the list gives conversions to make
your lives easier. ;o)

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~mjw/recipes/e...om-coll.html#9

and, of course, if you "play around" with the web address (by using your
white-out on the ant-rom-coll.html#9 part, you'll get several other
ancient food pages.

i love the ancient roman one cuz it gives me a reason to brush up on my
(almost) extinct latin. but, not to worry, there is english there, as
well.

just in time for the annual T-DAY feast!!

I recently did a sit-down feast for 180 working from Roman sources,
mostly Apicius. Some articles about the process as well as the
recipes - Latin, translations and redactions - are here.

The Roman articles are the last ones, The Coronation of Darius and Roxane.
